A market sells 6 cans of food for every 7 boxes of food. The market sold a total of 26 cans and boxes today. How many of each kind did the market sell?

12 cans and 14 boxes.

Step-by-step explanation:

A/Q

6 cans are sold with 7 boxes, i. e; total of 6+7 = 13

as the market sold 26 cans and boxes, we can calculate each by dividing from the usual total.

26/13 = 2

they sold double their usual total.

so, if they normally sold 6 cans they sold its double, 6*2 = 12

the double of normal boxes would be 7*2 = 14
