Solution

Step 1: Find the cost of one steak and one lobster tail separately.

The cost of one steak can be found by dividing the total cost of the steaks by the number of steaks. So, 82.86÷3=82.86 ÷ 3 = 27.62 per steak.

Similarly, the cost of one lobster tail can be found by dividing the total cost of the lobster tails by the number of lobster tails. So, 55.12÷2=55.12 ÷ 2 = 27.56 per lobster tail.

Step 2: Add the cost of one steak and one lobster tail together.

So, 27.62(foronesteak)+27.62 (for one steak) + 27.56 (for one lobster tail) = $55.18

Therefore, one steak and one lobster tail together would cost $55.18.
