Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate total non - hotel cost per person

Sum up non - hotel expenses: (375 + 50+10 + 20+26=$481) per person.

Step2: Calculate total non - hotel cost for two people

Since there are two people, total non - hotel cost (excluding transportation) is (481\times2=$962). Add transportation cost of ($160). So total non - hotel cost is (962 + 160=$1122).

Step3: Calculate total available for hotel

Budget is ($1600). So amount available for hotel is (1600-1122=$478).

Step4: Calculate per person per night hotel cost

The training is 2 days (1 night). For two people, per person per night: (\frac{478}{2}=$239).

Answer:

(239)
