Question

Help!!

The LaSalle High School senior class raised funds for an end of the year cruise getaway. The city gave
them a special package for the port fees and taxes - a flat fee of $1,500 for the entire class's port fees
and taxes. It costs $367 per student to board the cruise. If your class raised $16, 600, how many students
can attend?

Answer 1

41 Students

Explanation:

Step the equation up as 367x+1500=16600. You want to subtract 1500 from both sides and you get 15100. Divide 15100 by 367 for how much it costs for each student and you get 41.1444141689 you want to round down because you can't have a part of a student.
