Problema Solution

A study showed the chicken pox vaccine can save $5 for every $1 in cost. If 15,500 children are immunized at a cost of $35 per child, how much money would be saved?

Answer provided by our tutors

the total cost for all the children is:


15,500*35 = $542,500


$5 is saved for every $1 in cost thus there will be:


542,500 x 5 = $2,712,500 saved.
