Question

a cat owner paid the vet a fee of$269.50 for a years worth of visits. he made 14 visits that year. what was the average per cost?​

Answer 1

The Average cost of per visit to the vet = $ 19.25

Explanation:

Here, the total visits to the vet in a year = 14

Also, the total amount paid to the vet in a year = $269.50

Now, Let us assume the average cost per vet visit = m

So,
`\textrm{Average cost of per visit}  = \frac{\textrm{Total amount paid in n visits}}{\textrm{ n visits}}\\ \implies  m = (269.50)/(14)  = 19.25`

or, m = $ 19.25

Hence, the Average cost of per visit to the vet = $ 19.25

Answer 2

The average per cost is $19.25.

Explanation:

Given:

The fee paid by cat owner = $269.50. Total visits he made that year 14.

Now, to find the average per cost.

So, to get the average per cost we divide the total fee by total visits:

Average per cost = Total fee ÷ Total visits

=
`269.50/ 14`

=
`19.25`

Therefore, average per cost is $19.25.
