We know that 4 cans of coffee cost $1.60. So, if we divide that number by 4, we get

$4\text{ cans of coffee} = 1.60 \iff \dfrac{4\text{ cans of coffee}}{4} = \dfrac{1.60}{4} \iff 1 \text{ can of coffee} = 0.4$

Now we can simply repeat this process again: if we divide both sides by 4, we get

$1 \text{ can of coffee} = 0.4 \iff \dfrac{1 \text{ can of coffee}}{4} = \dfrac{0.4}{4} \iff \dfrac{1}{4}\text{ cans of coffee} = 0.1$

Answer:

1. Rhombus

2. Square

Step-by-step explanation:

1. A rhombus is a quadrilateral whose four sides all have the same length and opposite sides are parallel.

From the diagram, you can see that $\overline{AB}\parallel \overline{CD},\ \overline{AD}\parallel \overline{BC}$ (given) and all four sides are congruent, thus this shape is a rhombus.

2. A square is a quadrilateral which has four equal sides, four equal angles (90-degree angles) and opposite sides are parallel.

From the diagram, you can see that $\overline{EF}\parallel \overline{GH},\ \overline{EH}\parallel \overline{FG}$ (given), all four sides are congruent, and all four angles are right angles, thus this shape is a square.
