ANSWER:

$9.0.

Each person will owe $9.0.

STEP-BY-STEP SOLUTION:

Total amount of people:
= 3

Total bill:
= $31.84

Discount off total bill:
= 15%

Total bill after discount:
= 31.84 × ( 100% - 15% )
= 31.84 × 85%
= 27.064

Total bill after discount split evenly / Amount each person will owe:
= 27.064 ÷ 3
= 9.0213 ( 3 repeater )
= $9.0 ( rounded to the nearest tenth )
