You know what the total of the costs is for the month. You also know the number of beds occupied during the month(6,450 guests, each staying for 2 days). Dividing one by the other will give you the average cost per occupied bed per day. (Why are you attempting a question for which you do not have an answer? You should be using a Revision Kit from one of the ACCA Approved Publishers - they have answers and explanations :-) )
