5 friends visited a fruit stall, and everyone decided to contribute equally to the total bill of $100. If one of the friends had a coupon for 6% off the total bill, and if each friend still contributed equally after the coupon was applied to the bill, how much did each friend pay? Choose the correct choice from the following answers.
A) 18	B) 18.8	C) 19	D) 17.8	E) 17.9

Rationale: at the non - discounted price , each friend would pay $ 20 , as $ 100 divided by 5 friends is $ 20 per friend . but if the bill is 6 % off , then each friend would pay 6 % less . 6 % of $ 20 is $ 1.2 , so each friend saves $ 1.2 and pays the remaining 18.8 correct option : option b
Answer: B
