Question

A museum offers a 2 hour guided group tour. For groups with fewer than 35 people the cost is $12.25 per

person; for groups with 35 people or more the cost is $11.50 per person. The 38 people in the 11:00am tour
group each paid $12.25 in advance. What is the total refund that the museum owes the 11:00am group?

Answer 1

The total refund that the museum owes the 11:00am group is $28.50

Explanation:

$12.25*38 = $465.50

$11.50*38 = $437

Subtract: $465.50 - $437 = $28.50
