Answer:

Solution:

here,

6 cans cost = 9 dollars

1 can costs = 9÷6 dollars

= 1.5 dollars

Now,

8 cans cost = 8×1.5 dollars

= 12 dollars

If 6 cans cost $9, we can divide the $9 by the 6 cans to find the unit rate, or the price of 1 can. This is $1.50. If 1 can costs $1.50, we can multiply this price by 8 to figure out the price for 8 cans. This is $12.

$9 / 6 = $1.50
$1.50 * 8 = $12
