Question

A school is arranging a field trip to the zoo. The school spends 875.49 dollars on passes for 29 students and 4 teachers. The school also spends 279.56 dollars on lunch for just the students. How much money was spent on a pass and lunch for each student?

Answer 1

Money spent on each student is $36.17

Explanation:

$875.49 = 29 students & 4 teachers

33 people = $875.49

1 person = $26.53 (pass)

29 students = $279.56

1 student = $9.64 (lunch)

each student = $9.64 + $26.53

= $36.17
