Answer 1

To find the cost per student for a zoo trip including passes and lunch, the total cost of $1297.56 is divided by the number of students, resulting in $30.17 per student.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question involves calculating the average cost per student for a field trip that includes both passes to the zoo and lunch. To find the cost per student, we first add the total spent on passes ($897.23) to the total spent on lunch ($400.33), which gives us a combined total of $1297.56. Since only students' costs should be included for lunch, we divide the total amount by the number of students, which is 43.

Doing the math: $1297.56 divided by 43 students equals approximately $30.17. Therefore, the average amount spent on a pass and lunch for each student is $30.17.
