Answer 1

Answer:

The price per meal provided by her is:

                         $ 17

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that:

The fees of caterer is dependent on the number of meals she provides.

Also, it is given that:

The total fees is: $ 1088

and the number of meals provided by her is: 64

We know that the cost of 1 meal is calculated as the ratio of the total fees to the number of meals provided by her.

i.e.

$\text{Cost\ of\ one\ meal}=\dfrac{1088}{64}\\\\i.e.\\\\\text{Cost\ of\ one\ meal}=\ \ 17$

Answer 2

1,088 / 64 = 17

The caterers fee is $17 per meal
