Answer 1

It's easy to Google each of these, but it really comes down to what it costs over a period of time. Like, for example, do you want the average prices for a single purchase of each thing, or purchases for each week or month?

Answer 2

This is a great question!! Your teacher is asking you to consider these costs to see if you can make enough money to cover your expenses. Things like "skip the dishes" cost a great deal to have your dinner delivered to your house, while buying groceries and cooking at home is MUCH MUCH cheaper.
Great question... lots of good things to look at!
