Brain hurts, easy maths question?

So, me and my BF are going on holiday next year and splitting the villa cost exactly 50/50:
The deposit is £817.22.
My boyfriend lent me £750 so I could pay the deposit, and I will pay him back when I get paid.
How much do I owe him? Sorry this is so simple but I'm so exhausted today and it's making my head hurt!

341.39.

Wow I wish I had your quick mind! Thank you!

You owe him what he lent you: £750.

I'm assuming that you have the additional money to make up the deposit and that neither of you owes the other anything else.

First you need to find out what you each should pay by splitting £817.22 in half. Then you need to subtract that amount from £750 to find how much too much your boyfriend has paid. You need to pay him that.

£408.61 each for the deposit.
so the difference is £341.39 which is what you owe him for your share.

Splitting the deposit 50/50 would cost you £408.61 each.

So far, your boyfriend has paid £750 and you have paid the remaining £67.22.

Your share of £408.61 minus the £67.22 you have already paid, is £341.39

£341.39 is what you owe your boyfriend.

How do you get that figure wowfudge

Ignore me! I thought you meant your half was £817.22.
It's bedtime for me I think.

Thank you, three of you are coming up with the same figure so that must be right !

£341.39.Both pay £408.61 deposit, he gave you too much,so you owe him back the £351.39.

@ssd it's the difference between £750 and a half share of the deposit.
