Step-by-step explanation:

The store paid $17.00
Solution: $24.00 (selling price) - $7.00 (difference of what the store paid) = $17.00
To find the answer we start by adding the contents of both containers together
7.49 + 6.26 = 13.75
Since we know that there is leftover paint we are going to subtract the leftovers from the total of combined paint
13.75 - 0.43 = 13.32
The combined paint is poured into 4 containers so we divide our combined total minus the leftovers by 4
13.32/4 = 3.33
Answer: There are 3.33 liters of paint in each container
That they are not congruent
