Four friends hosted a Graduation party: Genesis spent $21 for drinks, Mya spent $25 for food, Alina spent $16 for invitations, and Mylana spent $18 for decorations. The friends want to share the party expenses equally, and Alina will pay the entire amount she owes to one person. Who owes money to whom?

Alina owes $4 to Mya and Mylana owes $1 to Mya and $1 to Genesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

As they want to share the party expenses equally, first you have to add all the expenses and divide them by 4 people to know the amount that each person has to pay:

$21+$25+$16+$18= $80/4= $20

As everyone has to pay $20 for the party expenses, we can see that Genesis spent $1 more and Mya $5 more, so they have to get the money back from the other 2 people.

Alina owes: $20-$16= $4. She owes $4 to Mya as she will pay the entire amount she owes to one person and Mya has to get $5 back.

Mylana owes: $20-$18= $2. She would have to pay $1 to Mya to complete the $5 she had to get back and $1 to Genesis.
