How much does Adam have to pay for his share of the costs.

Given :-

Adam and three friends go on holiday together for a week.

The costs of the holiday will be shared equally between the 4 friends.

These are :

◈ £1460 for 4 return plane tickets.

◈ £720 for the accomodation.

◈ £180 for the car hire for a week.

To Find :-

How much does Adam have to pay for his share of the costs.

Solution :-

➤ In 1st case :

⊡ The costs of the total 4 return plane tickets is £1460. It is divided between four friends.

So, according to the question,

↦ $\sf Cost\: for\: Adam = \pounds \dfrac{\cancel{1460}}{\cancel{4}}$

↦ $\sf Cost\: for\: Adam =\: \pounds \dfrac{\cancel{730}}{\cancel{2}}$

➠ $\sf\bold{\green{Cost\: for\: Adam =\: \pounds 365}}$

$\rule{150}{2}$

➤ In 2nd case :

⊡ It is given that £720 is for the accomodation :

$\leadsto \sf Adam\: pay\: for\: accommodation =\: \pounds \cancel{720} \times \dfrac{1}{\cancel{4}}$

$\leadsto \sf Adam\: pay\: for\: accomodation =\: \pounds 180 \times 1$

$\sf\bold{\green{Adam\: pay\: for\: accomodation =\: \pounds 180}}$

$\rule{150}{2}$

➤ In 3rd case :

⊡ It is given that, £180 for the hire for a week :

↦ $\sf Adam\: pay\: for\: the\: hire =\: \pounds {\cancel{180}} \times \dfrac{1}{\cancel{4}}$

↦ $\sf Adam\: pay\: for\: the\: hire =\: \pounds 45 \times 1$

➠ $\sf\bold{\green{Adam\: pay\: for\: the\: hire =\: \pounds 45}}$

$\rule{150}{2}$

➤ In last case :

⊡ Total amount of cost does Adam pay :

↦ $\sf Total\: amount =\: \pounds 365 + \pounds 180 + \pounds 45$

➦ $\sf\bold{\red{Total\: amount =\: \pounds 590}}$

$\therefore$ The total amount of cost does Adam pay is £590 .
