Right.
To calculate the total bill, we need to consider the expenses for the cinema tickets and the lunch.
1. Cinema tickets:
Since each family member spent $10.00 for their cinema ticket, we need to multiply that amount by the number of family members. In this case, there are 7 family members, so the total cost of cinema tickets is 7 x $10.00 = $70.00.
2. Lunch:
The family met 3 friends, which means there are a total of 7 + 3 = 10 people that need to be accounted for.
Each person paid $9.95 for lunch, so we need to multiply that amount by the total number of people. This gives us 10 x $9.95 = $99.50.
To find the total bill, we add the cost of the cinema tickets ($70.00) and the cost of lunch ($99.50):
Total bill = $70.00 + $99.50 = $169.50.
Therefore, the total bill for the Pat family, including the cost of cinema tickets and lunch for everyone, is $169.50.
