Week 435 (13th March 2026) 

Sam, Anna and their two children are looking into gym membership at their local leisure centre and working out what type of membership is most cost effective.  

The prices of different types of gym memberships for 12 months are shown below:     

Adult: £380   

Senior (aged 60 or over): £260   

Junior (aged 16 or under): £170   

Family (2 adults and 2 juniors): £920   

Sam and Anna are both aged 45 and they have a son aged 14 and a daughter aged 12.    

How much money will the family save by having a family membership instead of separate membership for each person?   

Answer:   

The price of a family membership is £920   

An individual membership is 2 adult memberships and 2 junior memberships   

2 adult memberships costs £760   

2 junior memberships costs £340   

Therefore the total cost is £1100    

The difference between the two prices is £180 .
