To find out how much Raymond pays, we'll need to subtract Tara's and Monica's payments from the total cost.
Tara pays 1/4 of the total cost = (1/4) * 1120 = 280
Monica pays .375 of the total cost = .375 * 1120 = 420
Now, we'll find out Raymond's payment by subtracting Tara's and Monica's payments from the total cost:
Raymond pays = Total cost - Tara's payment - Monica's payment
Raymond pays = 1120 - 280 - 420
Raymond pays = 420
Therefore, Raymond pays 420.
Tara, Monica, and Raymond share the cost of renting an apartment. The total monthly cost is 1,120. Tara pays 1/4 of the total cost. Monica pays .375 of the total cost. Raymond pays the rest. How much does Raymond pay?

what does the * represent?
The * symbol represents multiplication. In math, when we want to multiply two numbers, we use the * symbol. So, when we write (1/4) * 1120, it means we are multiplying 1/4 with 1120.
