Q. A company orders 3030 boxed lunches from a deli for $277.50 \$ 277.50 . If each boxed lunch costs the same amount, how much do 2323 boxed lunches cost?\newlineAnswer: $
  1. Find Cost per Lunch: First, we need to find the cost of one boxed lunch by dividing the total cost by the number of lunches. So, we divide $277.50\$277.50 by 3030.\newlineCalculation: $277.50÷30=$9.25\$277.50 \div 30 = \$9.25 per boxed lunch.
  2. Calculate Cost of 2323 Lunches: Now that we know the cost of one boxed lunch, we can find the cost of 2323 boxed lunches by multiplying the cost per lunch by 2323.\newlineCalculation: $9.25×23=$212.75\$9.25 \times 23 = \$212.75.
