Water Park Adventure

A class of 28 students was earning money for a field trip to a water park 60 miles away. They planned to stay overnight in a sister school's gymnasium and return the next day.

The PTA covered the expenses of the chaperones, but the students needed to fund the rest of the trip. The students had to pay for their bus, breakfast, lunch, dinner, and entry fees. The bus was $150.00, breakfast at Donny's was $3.95 each, lunch from Tica Bella was $2.38 each, dinner from Pizza Hutch was $45.00, and the entrance fee to the park was $4.00 each.

If the students split the total cost equally, how much would each have to earn to fund the trip?
