Sam is serving spaghetti and meatballs for dinner. The pasta costs $1.00 per box, a jar of sauce is $2.00 and 1 pound of meatballs is $5.00. He wants to stretch this meal into 8 servings. How much does each serving cost?
Thoughts? Step-by-step reasoning:
User
The pasta is $1.00, the sauce is $2.00 and the meat is $5.00 for a total of 1 + 2 + 5 = $8.00. He wants to stretch this meal into 8 servings so each serving will cost 8 / 8 = $1.00.
Thus, the answer is 1.
