Each player will pay $5 to attend the banquet for their soccer league, and the league will pay the rest of the cost. The total cost for the banquet is $960. If there are 60 players in the league, find the cost per player.(1 point) $$

The total cost of the banquet is $960. Each player will pay $5. Therefore, the total amount that the players will collectively pay is $5 * 60 = $<<5*60=300>>300.

To find the cost per player, the total cost must be divided by the number of players. So, the cost per player is $960 / 60 = $<<960/60=16>>16. Answer: \boxed{16}.
