Question

henry is visiting australia from germany and wants to buy 750 milliliters of organic honey. the honey is sold in 250 - ml jars, and the price is 12 aud (australian dollars) per jar. what is the price of honey in eur (euro) per liter? currency conversion: 1 aud = 0.60 eur. 7.20 eur per liter; 1.80 eur per liter; 28.80 eur per liter; 48 eur per liter

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate the number of jars

Since Henry wants 750 ml of honey and each jar is 250 ml, the number of jars $n=\frac{750}{250}=3$ jars.

Step2: Calculate the total cost in AUD

Each jar costs 12 AUD, so the total cost in AUD for 3 jars is $C_{AUD}=12\times3 = 36$ AUD.

Step3: Convert AUD to EUR

Given 1 AUD = 0.60 EUR, the total cost in EUR is $C_{EUR}=36\times0.60=21.6$ EUR.

Step4: Calculate the cost per liter

We have 750 ml = 0.75 liters. The cost per liter $P=\frac{21.6}{0.75}=28.8$ EUR per liter.

Answer:

28.80 EUR per liter
