Given:
12 cans of nuts = $27
Determine the cost of 7 cans of nuts.
Solution:
In order to determine the cost of 7 cans of nuts, we simply need to determine the cost of each can of nut first. To do so, simply divide $27 by 12.
= $27/12
= $2.25
Multiply 2.25 by 7.
= ($2.25)(7)
= $15.75
Final answer:
7 cans of nuts cost $15.75.
