    To find the rate per person, we divide the additional $105 by the three people who backed out. The quotient would be 35. Hence, each person should pay $35. To determine how many people went to the expedition, divide the $1400 + $105 by 35, the answer is 43. Since 3 backed out, then the total number who actually went was 40.
