You're planning on driving across country with 5 friends for spring break to a city 636 miles away (one way). Your van averages 14.3 miles per gallon. The average cost of gasoline is $2.59 per gallon (this question was made a while ago...). How much will each person need to pay toward gas for the trip (both there and back), assuming the cost is evenly divided between you and your 5 friends? Give your answer to the nearest penny.

What is $38.40
