Asixth grade class of 295 students is having an end of the year laser tag party. the party will cost

$8.95 per student, but since so many students are attending the laser tag company is giving the

group a $400 discount. estimate the total cost of the party.

a. $3,100 c. $2,700

b. $2,000 d. $2,300

The total cost of the party is approximately $2300, hence the correct answer is option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of students = 295 students

cost per student =  $8.95

Discounts given by the company = $400

To find:

We need to estimate the total cost of the party.  

Solution:

To find the total cost of the party we need to multiply the total number of students into the cost per student.

This can be done as follows:

=295×8.95

=2640.25

Therefore, the total cost of the party is $2640.25, but it is given that the laser tag company gave the students a discount of $400. Hence the total cost after discount is  

=2640.25-400

=2240.25

Therefore, the total cost of the party is approximately $2300

Hence the correct answer is option D.

the answer is 11.2 (i know i’m late)
