Give the step-by-step reasoning process and then the final answer. Micheal decided to take some piano lessons. One lesson costs $30 and lasts for 1.5 hours. How much will Micheal need to pay for 18 hours of lessons?
One lesson lasts 1.5 hours, so 18 hours of them is 18 / 1.5 = 12 lessons. If one lesson costs $30, then 12 lessons cost 12 * 30 = $360.
The final answer: 360.
