'row' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'how one splits the bill?' is the wordplay.
'how one' becomes 'i' (Roman numeral. I am not sure about the 'how' bit.).
'splits' indicates putting letters inside (inserted letters split open the word).
'the bill?' becomes 'nose' (I've seen this in other clues).
'i' placed inside 'nose' is 'NOISE'.

'about' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for noise that I've seen before include "Hubbub" , "Fuss" , "Racket, din" , "Excessive sound" , "Sound, disagreeable perhaps" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
