A company orders 9 boxed lunches from a deli for $93.15. If each boxed lunch costs the same amount, how much do 30 boxed lunches cost?

To find how much 30 boxed lunches cost, we can follow these steps:

1. The cost of 9 boxed lunches is $93.15.
2. The cost of one boxed lunch is calculated by dividing the total cost by 9:

\[
\text{Cost of 1 lunch} = \frac{93.15}{9} = 10.35
\]

3. Now, multiply the cost of one lunch by 30 to find the cost of 30 boxed lunches:

\[
\text{Cost of 30 lunches} = 10.35 \times 30 = 310.50
\]

Thus, 30 boxed lunches cost **$310.50**.
