Step-by-step solution

3 steps
  1. Calculate the cost per pint of milk.

    Cost per pint = Total cost / Number of pints
    Cost per pint = R4.92 / 12 pints
    Cost per pint = R0.41 per pint

  2. Determine the total number of pints bought in the week with visitors.

    Total pints = Usual pints + Extra pints
    Total pints = 12 pints + 3 pints
    Total pints = 15 pints

  3. Calculate the total milk bill for that week.

    Total bill = Total pints × Cost per pint
    Total bill = 15 pints × R0.41/pint
    Total bill = R6.15
