To find the total amount saved using the “Buy 4 Get 1 Free” coupon for five cans of soup priced at $2.99 each, follow these steps:
-
Calculate the total cost of the five cans without the coupon: \[ 5 \text{ cans} \times 2.99 \text{ per can} = 14.95 \]
-
Determine the cost with the coupon:
- You pay for 4 cans, and the 5th can is free. \[ 4 \text{ cans} \times 2.99 \text{ per can} = 11.96 \]
-
Calculate the savings: \[ \text{Total cost without coupon} - \text{Total cost with coupon} = 14.95 - 11.96 = 2.99 \]
Therefore, the total amount saved is $2.99. However, it seems you have listed responses that include $0.60 or $2.99. Based on calculations, the correct answer to the savings using the coupon is $2.99.
