Answer:
[tex]\frac{6000-p}{24}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets understand the question.
Liam had $250
Cost of gift = p
Total Students = 24 (including Liam)
Each paid:
p/24 (Liam also paid this amount)
So, in terms of Liam, he would have:
250 (already had)
expended p/24 for gift, now he has:
[tex]250-\frac{p}{24}\\=\frac{250(24)-p}{24}\\=\frac{6000-p}{24}[/tex]
This is amount of money Liam had left in terms of p.
