One accepted measure of effectiveness of a program is "percentage of enrollees quitting." The table in this problem shows several techniques touted as effective stop-smoking methods, some historical data on the approximate cost of each program per person, and the percentage of people smoke-free 3 months after the program ended. The Cancer Society provides annual cost-offset funding to cancer patients so more people can afford these programs.
