To find out how much each person pays, we first need to calculate the total expenses.
1. **Calculate the total expenses:**
\[
\text{Total expenses} = \text{Rent} + \text{Other expenses} = 690 + 859.32 = 1549.32
\]
2. **Divide the total expenses by the number of friends:**
\[
\text{Each person's share} = \frac{\text{Total expenses}}{\text{Number of friends}} = \frac{1549.32}{3} \approx 516.44
\]
Therefore, each person pays approximately **$516.44**.
