58 / 4 = ?
You are fantastic. So fast. Thanks. So 14.5 divided by 4 friends will be 3.625 so the answer will be 4 each one. Right?
Nope. Wrong.

How much will each person pay?

the correct answer is 14.50 because you would only have to divied $58 by 4 once.
The answer is 4x=58 because you want to find out how much each of them have to pay. And it asked for a multiplication experience. x=14.50
I believe the answer would be $14.50 because 58 divided by 4 = 14.5 but since we are talking money it would be $14.50.
