Answer:

$25.80

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the price of the meal with sales tax. Multiply 6.75% by $72.50.

72.50 * 0.0675 = 4.89

Add this value onto 72.50.

72.50 + 4.89 = 77.39

Divide this amount by 3.

77.39 / 3 = 25.7966...

Round this to the nearest hundredth because we're dealing with money.

$25.80 is how much each person should pay.
