10. Ewan keeps bees and sells jars of honey.

He buys two different sizes of jar for the honey.

• An empty small jar costs 12p and can hold 200 ml of honey.
• An empty large jar costs 20p and can hold 500 ml of honey.

Ewan works out how much to charge for each jar of honey, by:

• calculating the cost of the honey in the jar
• adding on the amount he paid for the jar.

For both sizes of jar, Ewan charges the same price per 100 ml for the honey itself.

Ewan charges his customers £3.40 for a 500 ml jar of honey.
This price is for the honey and the jar.

How much should Ewan charge for a 200 ml jar of honey?
