A one-way bus ride costs $1.75. A 30-day bus pass costs $42.
Why do you keep posting statements, but no questions?
To calculate the cost per trip for a 30-day bus pass, you need to divide the total cost of the pass by the number of days it is valid. In this case, the cost of the 30-day bus pass is $42, and it is valid for 30 days.
To calculate the cost per trip, divide $42 by 30:
Cost per trip = Total cost of the pass / Number of days the pass is valid
Cost per trip = $42 / 30
Cost per trip = $1.40
So, with a 30-day bus pass, the cost per trip is $1.40.
On the other hand, a one-way bus ride costs $1.75. This means that if you were to pay for each trip separately, it would cost you $1.75 per trip.
Therefore, if you plan to take more than 24 one-way bus rides within 30 days, purchasing a 30-day bus pass at $42 would be more cost-effective. However, if you plan to take fewer than 24 trips, it would be cheaper to pay for each trip individually at the rate of $1.75 per ride.
