Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Find out total amount of cans in pounds Samuel sold on Monday and Tuesday.

18.7 + 13.1 = 31.8

Samuel sold 31.8 pounds of cans.

Find out how much money Samuel got from selling cans on Monday and Tuesday.

31.8 * 0.40 = 12.72

Samuel earned $12.72 from selling cans Monday and Tuesday.

Find out how many batteries Samuel can buy by dividing the money earned by the price of batteries.

12.72 ÷ 5.50 ≈ 2.313

Samuel does not have enough money to buy 3 batteries but he does have enough to buy 2 batteries.
