Answer:

A cup of juice will cost 1.04 US dollars

Explanation:

Here, we want to know the cost of one cup of juice in US dollars.

The cost of a quart of juice is Canada is 4.40CAN

now, since there are 4 cups in a quart, the cost of a cup of juice will be 4.40/4 = 1.10 CAN

Moving on;

We are told that 1 USD = 1.06 CAN ;

thus x usd = 1.10 CAN

1 * 1.10 = x * 1.06

x = 1.10/1.06

x = 1.037 which is approximately 1.04 USD
