Answer 1

To determine how much each roommate will pay, you'll need to divide the total cost of the tablet by the number of roommates.

If the price of the tablet is \( x \), then each roommate would pay:

\[ \text{Each roommate's share} = \frac{x}{4} \]

For example, if the tablet costs $120, each roommate would pay:

\[ \frac{120}{4} = 30 \]

So, each person would pay $30.00, which should be typed as 30.00.

Please provide the price of the tablet to calculate the exact amount each roommate will pay.
