Abejide and his two brothers equally shared the cost of a monthly online gaming subscription. Each month costs $14.99. They received a 15% discount off of the monthly subscription. How much did each brother pay towards the cost of the monthly subscription for one year, excluding tax?

$50.97

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to subtract the 15% discount from the $14.99 subscription fee. If your calculator can't subtract percentages, then you can use this formula:

Next, we need to take this solution and multiply it by the number of months in a year, which is twelve:

Including Abejide, there are three people splitting the cost of the subscription equally. Therefore, we need to divide $152.898 by three.

Finally, we round $50.966 up to the nearest cent.
