Q:
The cost of 5 cans of dog food is $4.35. At this price ,how much do 11 cans of dog food cost? Explain your reasoning.
Accepted Solution
A:
First, you would need to calculate the cost for one can of dog food, the equation below represents that.
$4.35 ÷ 5 = $0.87
Now, all you would need to do is multiply the cost per can by the total number of cans.
$0.87 × 11 = $9.57
At the price of $0.87 per can, it would cost $9.57 for 11 cans of dog food.
I hope this helps!
