A. $2.70

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that Eryn and seven of her friends go out to lunch. The total bill comes to $143.35. They decide to leave a 15% tip. Each person will contribute an equal amount to the total tip.

First of all we will find the amount of tip by finding 15% of $143.35.

$\text{Amount of tip}=\frac{15}{100}\times 143.35$

$\text{Amount of tip}=0.15\times 143.35$

$\text{Amount of tip}=21.5025$

Now let us find amount that each person will contribute by dividing 21.5025 by 8 as Eryn and her seven friends will contribute an equal amount to the total tip.

$\text{Each person's contribution to the total tip}=\frac{21.5025}{8}$

$\text{Each person's contribution to the total tip}=2.6878125\approx 2.7$

Therefore, each person will contribute $2.70 to the total tip and option A is the correct choice.
