Answer 1

To find the price in dollars per quart, convert the price from yen per liter to dollars per quart. First, convert the price from yen per liter to yen per quart by multiplying by 4. Option B is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the price in dollars per quart, we can convert the price of soy milk from yen per liter to dollars per quart. First, we need to convert the price from yen per liter to yen per quart by multiplying by 4, since there are 4 quarts in a liter. Then, we can convert from yen to dollars by dividing by the exchange rate of 82.13 yen per dollar. Finally, we round the result to two decimal places.

Price in yen per quart: 368 yen per liter x 4 liters = 1472 yen per quart

Price in dollars per quart: 1472 yen per quart / 82.13 yen per dollar = 1.12 dollars per quart

Rounded to two decimal places, the price in dollars per quart is $17.91 per quart.

Then, convert from yen to dollars by dividing by the exchange rate. Round the result to two decimal places.
