Answer: 40.27
Step-by-step explanation:
Let their September bill be x
Therefore, the October bill will be = x - 3.87.
Therefore, the addition of both bills will be:
x + (x - 3.87) = 237.75
x + x - 3.87 = 237.75
2x - 3.87 = 237.75
2x = 237.75 + 3.87
2x = 241.62
x = 241.62/2
x = 120.81
Therefore, September bill was 120.81
Since the 3 students share the bull equally, the amount owed by each will be:
= 120.81 / 3
= 40.27
Each person owes 40.27
