if $750 = 1 month

? = 12 months

then we have; $9000 per year shared by 4 friends

9000/4 = $2250 per person in a year and

2250/12 = $187.5 per person in a month

If someone left, then we have

$750 = 1 month

? = 12 months

$9000/3 = $3000 per person in a year

$3000/12 = $250 per person in a month

So therefore, the share of expenses monthly increases from $187.5 to $250
