Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

What we know:

There are 10 students who want to attend the cook off.

$25 = 1 ticket

$80 = transportation cost

$11 = 1 box of cookies


25 x 10 = 250 (total cost of tickets)

250 + 80 = 330 (total costs of tickets + transportation)

330 ÷ 10 = 33 (total amount each student must contribute)

33 ÷ 11 = 3 (total boxes of cookies each student must sell)

So your answer is 3.


I hope this helps!

Cheers, July.
