Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Write and solve an equation of ratios:

 12       $4.99

------- = -----------

  48          x

where x is the cost for 48 cans.

Cross multiplying, we get 12x = $239.52.  Solving this for x is accomplished by dividing both sides by 12:

      $239.52

x = --------------- = $19.96

            12

48 cans would cost $19.96.
