Answer 1

1. So we need to find the total price of buying 25 cans, therefore:

buy 2 packages of 10 cans

cost = 2 * $14 = $28

buy 5 individual cans

cost = 5 * $2 = $10

total cost = $28 + $10 = $38

2. If we are to buy 3 packages of 10 cans, the payment for each can would simply be:

payment for each can = $14 / 10 = $1.4
