Answer 1

Given:

A storekeeper put 840 cans of milk in packages with 5 cans each.

She sold each package for Php 42.00.

To find:

The total amount received by the storekeeper.

Solution:

We have,

Total number of cans = 840

Cans in one package = 5

Number of packages =
`\frac{\text{Total number of cans}}{\text{Cans in one package}}`

=
`(840)/(5)`

=
`168`

Selling price of each package = Php 42

Selling price of 168 package = Php (168×42)

= Php 7056

The total amount received by the storekeeper is Php 7056.

Therefore, the correct option is C.
