Answer 1

Well, the cost of freelance work is usually calculated from how many hours a project will take x the average cost of an hour of work in this area, roughly speaking, I would look through the profiles of freelancers, I would calculate the approximate cost of an hour of work. Then I would analyze the deadlines for the completion of the work, mb a small survey or competition, and from all this an approximate price for the project emerges. Something like this. Also, in this way, you can make the most profitable decision (split into several subprojects or not).

The cost of the work will tell you the one who will perform them.
