A group of 5 friends want to buy a flat-screen TV for $210. The tax comes to $15. Write and solve a multiplication equation to find how much money each person should pay if each person pays the same amount.

$45

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to create a multiplication equation, we would need to use a single variable that represents the amount that each friend will pay. This can be represented by the variable x. We multiply this variable by the number of friends which should equal the total of the TV with the tax included. Like so...

$210 + $15 = 5x

Now that we have the equation we can go ahead and solve it by adding the total and the tax, and then dividing both sides by 5 in order to isolate x.

$210 + $15 = 5x

$225 = 5x

$45 = x

Finally, we can see that each friend will pay the same amount which is $45
