Three friends are going bowling. The cost per person per game is $5.40. The shoe rental is $2.00 per person. Their total cost is $54.60 .How many games did they play?
Let x = number of games they play.
so three friends costs 3(5.40)x
three shoe rentals costs 3(2.00)
Total = 54.60 = games + shoes
Total = 54.60 = 3(5.40)x + 3(2,00)
Total = 54.60 = 16.20x + 6
48.60 = 16.20x
48.60 / 16.20 = x
x = 3 games each
