Answer:

Waitrose: £12.75

Budgens: £12.28.

The price of 9 tin cans in budgens is £6.14

The price of one tin can in waitrose is


(4.25)/(6)

The price of 18 tin cans in waitrose will be


(4.25)/(6)* 18=\pounds 12.75

The price of one tin can in budgens is


(6.14)/(9)

The price of 18 tin cans in budgens will be


(6.14)/(9)* 18=\pounds12.28

The price of 18 tin cans in waitrose is £12.75 and in budgens is £12.28.
