Ms. Twillie's class (25 students) and Ms. Grober's class (24 students) are off to the Field Museum for a field trip. Their expenses will be as follows: the program cost $10 per student; the bus costs $235.20; and the group will have lunch at a charge of $2.75 per student. If every student participates in the field trip, how much do each of students have to pay to go on the field trip?

Each student need to pay  $ 17.55 to go on the field trip.

Step-by-step explanation:

As per given, Total students = 25+24 = 49

Program cost per student = $10

Bus cost = $235.20

Charge per student =$2.75

Total cost of trip = (Program cost+ Charge per student ) (Total students)+ Bus cost

Total cost of trip =  $ [( 10 +2.75)(49) + 235.20]

= $[12.75(49)+235.20]

= $ [624.75+235.20]

= $ 859.95

Each student have to pay = (Total cost of trip ) ÷ (Total students)

= (859.95 ) ÷ 49

= $ 17.55 [approx.]

Hence,  Each student need to pay  $17.55 to go on the field trip.
