Answer:
$1.02
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that Clark buys 2 gallons of paint for $ 16.39.
To find the cost per pint of paint let us convert amount of paint in gallons.
1 gallon = 8 pints.
2 gallons= 8*2 pints= 16 pints.
Now let us find cost per pint of paint by dividing the total cost of paint by number of pints in 2 gallons.
[tex]\text{The cost per pint of paint}=\frac{16.39}{16}[/tex]
[tex]\text{The cost per pint of paint}=1.024375[/tex]
Upon rounding our answer to nearest cent we will get,
[tex]\text{The cost per pint of paint}=1.02[/tex]
Therefore, the cost per pint of paint is $1.02.
