Angela shared a cab with her friends. When they arrived at their destination, they evenly divided the $j fare
among the 3 of them. Angela also paid a $5 tip.
How much did Angela pay in total?
Write your answer as an expression.

Answer :

Total  friends = 3

fare = $ J

She also paid $5 tip

So there is J amount of money splitted into 3 friends.

That means you divide J/3 .

After Angela also  pays additional tip of $5.

That means you also add 5.

So the expression for how much Angela pay in total is: J/3 + 5
