Answer 1

Explanation:

Answer 2

Price of each small cap = $9

Price of each medium cap = $8.44

Price of each large cap = $7.20

Explanation

Price of each cap = (Total price of the caps in that group)/(Total number of caps in that group)

For small caps

Total price of the caps in that group = $180

Total number of caps in that group = 20

Price of each small cap = ($180/20) = $9

For medium caps

Total price of the caps in that group = $270

Total number of caps in that group = 32

Price of each medium cap = ($270/32) = $8.4375 = $8.44

For large caps

Total price of the caps in that group = $360

Total number of caps in that group = 50

Price of each medium cap = ($360/50) = $7.20

Hope this Helps!!!
