Total And Explanation The total of all the meal for the one week is $192.13. How

I did this this without going over 200$ is I looked at the menu and I looked at how many serving it serves. So some of the things did not cost for the week like for breakfast I had leftovers so I used the leftovers instead of paying every day. Eating leftovers lowered down the price. Me my grandma and my grandpa will have a balanced meal because I made sure that there was not only junk food that we were eating I wanted to put healthy things in the menu. I did not get a lot of things each day because usually grandparents don’t eat that much food as regular people does. I am hopping to have fun with my grandma and grandpa and make sure that they are good and healthy.

Explanation 2 How I paid is I paid 192.13$ out of my

200 dollars that my grandmother gave. I have 7 dollar and 87 cent left . When I paid for the whole meal I got 31 cents back.

ChallengesOne of my challenges was going over the price. First i had 210.13 which was over the budget.so i had to lower the price by bringing out some foods. The second challenge is having too much food. I had to too much food and my price went up but when i decreased some of the food my price came lower so i made leftovers and that how my price went down.
