Question

1. youre considering moving into a 3-bedroom apartment with 2 roommates, rather than living on your own post-college. which of your expenses would likely decrease by having roommates? groceries and eating out rent cell phone bill bedroom furniture

Explanation:

To determine which expense decreases with roommates, analyze each option:

• Groceries and eating out: Roommates don’t inherently reduce personal spending here (e.g., each buys their own food or eats out independently).
• Rent: Rent for a 3 - bedroom apartment is split among 3 people (you + 2 roommates). If living alone, you’d pay the full rent; with roommates, your share of rent is lower.
• Cell phone bill: This is a personal expense tied to your phone plan, unaffected by roommates.
• Bedroom furniture: You still need furniture for your own bedroom, so this expense doesn’t decrease.

Answer:

B. Rent
