Each of them pays $$135$

For $500$ $km.$ car consumes $50$ liters

Hence for $1$ $km.$ car consumes $50/500=1/10$ liters

and for $4000$ $km.$ car consumes $1/10xx4000=400$ liters

As $1$ liter costs $$1.35$

$400$ liter costs $$1.35xx400=$540$

As Philip is going on a road trip with three of his friends to Disneyland, this should be split between $4$ persons

and hence each of them pays $$540/4=$135$

Philip takes his car on a trip with 33 friends to Disneyland. His car consumes 5050 liters of fuel for 500km.500km. Journey to Disneyland and back is 4000km.4000km. and fuel is $1.35$1.35 per kilometer. If the bill is split between them, how much each of them pays?
