Answer 1

Answer:

Cost of 11 cans of Dog food is $9.57

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of 5 cans of dog food = $4.35

So to find out the cost of 11 cans of dog food at the same price, we need to calculate the price of 1 can of dog food.

Calculation for finding out cost of 1 can of dog food

The price $4.35 which is given is the price of 5 cans

So to find the cost of 1 can, we need to divide the given price by 5

5 Cans of dog food = $4.35

1 can of dog food = 4.35 ÷ 5

1 can of dog food = $0.87

Now to find out the price of 11 cans, we will multiply the price of 1 can with 11

Cost of 11 cans = 11 × $0.87

                          = $9.57
