Let x be the number of cards in the $27 set, then Nicole has 2 friends that have $9 each. This makes 3 people, therefore each person gets x/3 cards. So each friend would get 1/3 of the cards.

Answer:  Number of cards each friend gets is given by

[tex]\frac{x}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of cards be x.

Since we have given that

Amount Nicole used to spend on cards = $9

Total cost of one set =$27

Since she finds friends with the same amount of money to split the cost of a set.

So, Number of friends she finds is given by

[tex]\frac{27}{9}=3\\\\\text{ Nicole finds 2 friends who has same amount to split the cost}[/tex]

Now, Number of cards each friend gets is given by

[tex]\frac{x}{3}[/tex]
