Sarah is planning an extended stay in Greece. The table below shows a list of cities she would like to visit during her trip, as well as the amount of money she expects to need to visit each one. All costs are given in euros (€).CityCost (€)Thessaloniki206Athens243Volos208Kavala186Chania234Serres260Larissa299Heraklion231Although Sarah would like to visit all of these cities, because she only has a budget of €1,410, she recognizes that she will have to drop some of these cities from her plan. Which of the following pairs of cities will not put Sarah back under budget if she drops them?
The total cost of visiting all eight cities is €1,867, which is €457 over Sarah’s €1,410 budget. Dropping Volos and Athens saves €208 + €243 = €451, leaving a cost of €1,416—still €6 over budget. So that pair will not put her back under budget.
