Elizabeth has 256 guests coming to her class reunion. The basic meal for one meat and one side is $9.25 per person. I am still confused what to do please help!
I'm confused too. What is it you want to know?
You have a price per meal, and the number of meals...
I want to know you much it costs in total. Thanks
$/meal * meals = $
To help you understand what to do, let's break down the problem step by step:
1. The first step is to calculate the total cost for the basic meal for one person. The cost per person for one meat and one side is $9.25.
2. Once we know the cost per person, we can multiply it by the total number of guests. In this case, Elizabeth has 256 guests coming to her class reunion. So, to find the total cost, we multiply 256 by $9.25:
Total cost = 256 guests * $9.25 per person
3. To calculate this, we can use a calculator or do it manually. If we multiply 256 by $9.25, we get the total cost for the basic meal at the class reunion.
I hope this explanation helps you understand what to do.
