Below is the list price of swimming lessons on the website at Monash University swimming pool.
When you look at the price list and read all the explanations below, as a consumer, what do you think the actual cost that the student has to pay fortnightly on either 30, 45 or 60 minutes class?

Thanks. I was trying to compare the cost between different swimming centres. Initially I thought the 30 minutes lesson would be $31.8/fortnightly but with your calculation, it actually is $38.16.
I am confused where the 38.16 came from lol.
Ahh I see, so you can go to as many/little classes per week as you like
My mistake was when I first look at the table, I thought it mean 2 x 30 minutes lesson would cost $31.8 but with your calculation, 2 lessons would be $38.16.
Not sure what you meant by "the students can go to as many/little classes per week as you like" but if they pay $31.8/fortnightly, they can go to the pool to practice on their own as many times as they like.
If you want 1 lesson per week it's $31.80 per fortnight. If you want 2 lessons per week it's $47.70 per fortnight
Seems easy enough
Yes, it seems easy. The customers only need to be aware that there will 4 fortnights per annum that they still have to pay $31.80 but no lesson for them to attend. Because there are only 40 lessons/annum.
Yeah it goes by "terms" where you'll have two weeks of no lessons in between each term.
You can only attend that one class per week but you can practice/swim as many times as you like. Unlimited entry.
To take the 30min class for example
I would say it would be $31.8 (every fortnight) paid 24 times for a total of $763.2 per year.
This would give you 40 lessons.
What do you think it is?
