Answer:

Lewis spent £14.82.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of cartons of juice Lewis bought = 38

i. If 1 carton of juice = 45 p, then;

Lewis would spend = 38 x 45 p

                                = 1710 p

Since 100 p = £1, then;

1710 p = [tex]\frac{1710}{100}[/tex]

           = £17.10

Lewis would have spent £17.10.

ii. If 4 cartons = £1.56, then;

[tex]\frac{38}{4}[/tex] = 9.5

Lewis would have spent = £1.56 x 9.5

                                         = £14.82

Given that he bought the cartons of juice for the least possible amount. Thus, Lewis spent £14.82.
