a company orders 11 boxed lunches from a deli for 108.90 if each boxed lunch costs the same amount how much do 17 boxed lunches cost

Answer 1

Let's assume the cost of each boxed lunch is "x".

According to the information given, 11 boxed lunches cost $108.90. So, the equation can be set up as:

11x = 108.90

To find the cost of one boxed lunch, we can divide both sides of the equation by 11:

x = 108.90 / 11
x = 9.90

Now, we can use this value to find the cost of 17 boxed lunches:

17 * 9.90 = $<<17*9.90=168.30>>168.30

Therefore, 17 boxed lunches cost $168.30.
