the base price would be the same, the room is independent of meals.,
it is possible to write an equation for this problem.

anonymous · Answer

3 night + 6 meal = $132.00

3 night + 2 meals = $109.00

anonymous · Answer

we can notice there's just a difference of 4 meals in the plans.
(they both have 3 nights, they both have also 2 meals in common)
only difference is one has 4 meals more than the other.

also, only difference is $23. then,you can get the avg price per meal
with this information, if the 2 cost the same like the additional 4.
