To determine which charter the group should choose, we need to compare the total cost of each option for a group of 10 customers.
For Maritime Voyage, the boat rental cost is $250 and there are 10 customers, so the total cost for the boat rental is $250.
The cost per person is $25 and there are 10 customers, so the total cost per person is 10 * $25 = $250.
Therefore, the total cost for Maritime Voyage is $250 (boat rental) + $250 (per person) = $500.
For Catamaran Command, the boat rental cost is $75 and there are 10 customers, so the total cost for the boat rental is $75.
The cost per person is $50 and there are 10 customers, so the total cost per person is 10 * $50 = $500.
Therefore, the total cost for Catamaran Command is $75 (boat rental) + $500 (per person) = $575.
Comparing the total costs, we can see that Maritime Voyage is the cheaper option for a group of 10 customers.
