A router for four
Lucky, Schulz and Boba chipped in equally for a router. Then Chico moved in and paid his share, 30 dollars, and that money was handed back to the first three so that all four ended up paying the same. How much did the router cost?
Answer: 120 dollars. Everyone paid the same in the end, and the fourth share is 30 dollars, so each of the others also ended up paying 30. Four shares make 120.
