Question

The science club advisor expects that between 42 and 49 students will attend Science Club field trip. The school allows $5.50 per student for sandwiches and drinks. What is the advisors budget for food for the trip?

Answer 1

$269.50

Explanation:

Between 42-49

So, you have to assume 49 students will arrive, better to have more and have left overs than get less and not find kids.

As for math you just do 49 x 5.50 = 269.5

Finally that measn the budget for the food is $269.50
