Mrs Green is a school teacher. She has organised a school trip for 66 children.
The total cost of the trip was £1800.
The school paid 56% of the total cost.
The rest of the total cost was divided equally between the 66 children.
Work out how much money each child paid.
Answer:
First find 56% of 1800 by multiplying 1800 by the percentage multiplier of 0.56 to get £1008
The remaining cost paid for by students is £792
Divide this by 66 for each child to get £12.
