Question

A caterer’s fee is based on the number of meals she provides how much is the price per meal if the total fee is $1088 for 68 meals

Answer 1

We are given the total fee = $1088

The number of meals  = 68

The price per meal would be $\frac{total fee}{number of meals}$

= $\frac{1088}{68}$

= 16

Hence the price per meal = $16

Answer 2

Total cost = $1088 (Given)

Total number of meals = 68 (Given)

Find the cost of 1 meal:

68 meals = $1088

1 mean = Total cost of the meal ÷ total number of meals

1 meal = 1088 ÷ 68

1 meal = Rs 16

Answer: The price per meal is Rs 16
