Answer:

The correct answer is 32.88.

Explanation:

Cost price for a 26 ounce can of coffee = 6.75.

A case of coffee contains 12 cans.

Total cost price of a case is 12 × 6.75 = 81.

Selling price of each can of coffee = 9.49.

Total selling price of a case is 12 × 9.49 = 113.88.

Total profit for selling a case of cnas of coffee is given by 113.88 - 81 = 32.88

Thus the profit for selling each can is 32.88.
