Question 911755
A civic club adopted a project that would cost 96000.00. Before the project was completed, 16 new members agreed to pay their share of the cost of the project. The cost per member was thereby reduced by 200.00 Find the original number of members and the original cost per member.
***
let x=original number of members
{{{96000/(x+16)=200}}}
200(x+16)=96000
200x+3200=96000
200x=92800
x=464
96000/464≈207
original number of members=464
original cost per member≈$207
