Answer:

£0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

egg = 2.80

Bacon = 2 * 2.40 = 4.80

Baked beans = 2 tins

Amount issued = 10

Change obtained = 80p = 0.8

Let cost per baked beans = x

Hence,

2.80 + 4.80 + 2x = 10 - 0.8

7.60 + 2x = 9.20

2x = 9.20 - 7.60

2x = 1.6

x = 1.6 / 2

x = 0.8

Hence, a tin of baked beans cost £0.8

Answer:

£0.80

Step-by-step explanation:

egg = 2.80

Bacon = 2 * 2.40 = 4.80

Baked beans = 2 tins

Change obtained = 80p = 0.8

Let cost per baked beans = x

lol

2.80 + 4.80 + 2x = 10 - 0.8

7.60 + 2x = 9.20

2x = 9.20 - 7.60

2x = 1.6

x = 1.60 / 2

x = 0.80

YES WE GOT IT, a tin of baked beans cost £0.80
