Answer:

$35.96 to 2.d.p. or 36 to 2.s.f.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can show this by:

611 = 78x

x being the 78 students

To find 1x which is the price of one student, or one lunch, we can simply divide both sides by 78:

$\frac{611}{78} = \frac{78x}{78}$

Or:

35.95 = 1x

So each lunch cost 35.96 to 2.d.p. or 36 to 2.s.f.
