Answer 1

Given:

The price of one can is $ 1.59.

Ryan has a coupon for $1.00 off the price of 4 cans of vegetables.

The price of 4 cans will be,

$\begin{gathered} 1\text{ can= \ 1.59} \\ 4\text{ cans=4}\times1.59=\text{ \ }6.36 \end{gathered}$

Ryan uses the coupon,

$\text{ \ 6.36- \ 1= \ 5.36}$

Answer: Ryan spends $5.36
