The cost of an identical threecourse lunch for four people was £56.00. The main course cost twice as much as the sweet and the sweet cost twice as much as the starter. How much did the main course cost per person?
£8.00 per person: starter = 1 unit, sweet = 2 units, main course = 4 units, = 7 units in total. Therefore, cost per unit = £56 ÷ 7 = £8.00. The main course, therefore, cost 4 × 8 = 32 (or £8.00 per person);
