Question

A person who wants to get in shape goes to a local gym that advertises 48 training sessions for $1219. Find the cost of 116 training sessions. Round your answer to the nearest cent.

Answer 1

The cost of 48 training sessions is $1219 . The cost of 116 training sessions can be computed below

$\begin{gathered} 48\text{ training session = \ 1219} \\ 116\text{ training session = ?} \\ \text{cross multiply} \\ \cos t\text{ = }\frac{116\times1219}{48} \\ \cos t=\frac{141404}{48} \\ \text{cost}=2945.91666667 \\ \text{cost}\approx2945.92\text{ dollars} \end{gathered}$
