Question

Onesimus bought a phone for $ 75 and signed up for a single-line phone plan with 2000 monthly anytime minutes. The cost of the plan was $ 124.36 per month. Calculate the cost for 21 months assuming that the number of minutes does not exceed 2000 per month

Answer 1

cost for 21 months without considering cost of phone is $2,611.56

Total cost inclusive of cost of phone = $2,686.56

Explanation:

cost of 2000 monthly anytime minutes plan = $ 124.36

So , in 1 month cost for given plan = $ 124.36

we have to find cost for 21 month

In 21 month, cost for given plan = 21 * cost of 1 month plan

In 21 month, cost for given plan = 21 * $ 124.36 = $2,611.56

cost for 21 months is $2,611.56.

Note, this cost is without considering the cost of phone as it is not mentioned cost of phone is to be included or not.

In case cost of phone is included then

Total cost inclusive of cost of phone = $2,611.56 + $75 = $2,686.56
