Answer: Total bill = 60 dollars, look at the explanation for all info:

Step-by-step explanation: So, first let's find the answer to this problem:

Since there are Bill + his 4 friends, we should know that there are 5 people in total. So, if they all paid the same amount; 12, we'd multiply 5 by 12 to get 60

So, now let's set up an equation:

B = 5(12)        B = total amount of money paid

5 * 12 = 60

B = 60

60 = 60

Your equation would be:

B = 5(12)
