Question

A group
of roommates equally shared the $6,000
rent for an apartment. When four of the roommates
moved out, those roommates remaining still shared
the $6,000 rent equally, but each roommate's share
of the rent increased by $250. How many roommates
were there originally​

Answer 1

6000/n +250 = 6000/(n-4)

6000(n-4) + 250n(n-4) = 6000n

250n2 - 1000n - 24000 = 0

n2 - 4n - 96 = 0

(n-2)2 = 100

n = 12 (reject n < 0)
