Once every week, the 5 members of the band have lunch together. they always order the same number of pizzas and sodas and split the bill evenly. the bill is always $23.70. one day, another friend joined them, and they split the bill evenly 6 ways. how much less did each band member pay?

We can find this out by taking the total (23.70) and dividing it by the 5 band members, getting the number 4.74. Now we do this again, but with the extra band member we get 3.95. Now the last step it 4.74 - 3.95, which is 0.79. So each band member payed 0.79 less than normal.

maximum area = xy = (16)(32) = 512 ft2

to maximize the area of the garden, the side of the fence parallel to the side of the house should be 32 ft long, and the other two sides should both have length 16 ft.'
