Same idea, use it for the data given. $546 spent on 180 lunches, how much did one lunch cost?

anonymous · Answer

It doesn't say how much the lunch is.

anonymous · Answer

Total lunch money spent in a year = $546
Number of  lunches bought = 180
So, cost of one lunch = $ 546/ 180 = ?

Do i multiply the $3.03 by 180 days?
