Amount of debt owes by city = 1.2 million dollars = $1,200,000
Population of the city = 48,000
Note : To find for one person always do the division.
So to find the debt per person, divide the total debt by the total population of the city
Debt per person = $1,200,000 divided by 48,000
Debt per person = $1,200,000 ÷ 48,000
= $25
Answer : Debt per person is $25
