80 is the total number of students
Total cost: $10/student x 80 = $800
$960 x 2 = $1,920
In order to get the total cost per student, we need to get the sum of the cost of the food and bus rental. So 800 + 1,920 would be $2,720.
Now, divide the sum by 80 (number of students) and the result is 34. So the total cost per student is $34.

Its 34$

960 × 2 = 1920 (bus rentals)
80 × 10 = 800 (lunch)
1920 + 800 = 2720 (total cost)
2720/80 = 34 ( cost per student) Hope this helps :)
