Answer:$1.44

Step-by-step explanation:

on normal sales

2 cans cost $1.28

12 cans would cost = (12x1.28) / 2

12 cans would cost=15.36/2

12 cans would cost=7.68 on normal sales

Special sales:

6 cans is sold for 3.12

12 cans would be sold for (3.12+3.12)

12 cans would be sold for 6.24

Customer savings=7.68-6.24

Customer savings=1.44
