Answer:

They will spend less at the sunny side hotel

Explanation:

The attachment completes the question.

From the question, we understand that there are 4 individuals involved.

  • Mr. Preston (1)
  • Mrs. Preston (1)
  • The children (2)

And they will spend one night

First, we need to calculate the expenses in Traveler's hotel.


Rate = \$107.10 (for 3 people)


Additional\ Person = \$21.55 (for 1 person)


Breakfast = \$8.75 * 4 (for 4 people)


Tax = \$16.85

Total Expenses


Total = \$107.10 + \$21.55 + \$8.75* 4 + \$16.85


Total = \$107.10 + \$21.55 + \$35.00 + \$16.85


Total = \$108.50

For Sunny Side hotel:


Rate = \$152.95 (for 4 people)


Tax = \$21.34

Total Expenses:


Total = \$152.95 + \$21.34


Total = \$174.29

By comparison, they will spend less at the sunny side hotel.
