First, let's calculate the total cost of the food ordered by the five friends.
-
Cost of the pizzas:
- Two large cheese pizzas at $10 each: \[ 2 \times 10 = 20 \]
-
Cost of the wings: \[ 18.99 \]
-
Cost of the breadsticks: \[ 5.59 \]
Now, let's sum these amounts to find the total bill: \[ \text{Total} = 20 + 18.99 + 5.59 \]
Calculating this step by step: \[ 20 + 18.99 = 38.99 \] \[ 38.99 + 5.59 = 44.58 \]
The total bill is $44.58.
Now, to find out how much each of the five friends owes, we divide the total bill by the number of friends: \[ \text{Amount per person} = \frac{44.58}{5} \]
Calculating this: \[ \frac{44.58}{5} = 8.916 \]
Rounding this to the nearest hundredth: \[ 8.92 \]
Thus, each person owes $8.92.
