Question

i'm doing a stupid project over cuba.
i need to know how much a coke would cost there
their currency is a peso i believe

also, any major holidays?
years spent in school?

and extra credit: how old are the teens in the country?

yes very stupid i know.
please help.

Answer 1

A can of Coca-Cola varies in price , but here is some basic info.

Coke is not bottled or canned in Cuba , so it must be imported from Canada ,Mexico , or any other country that is not the U.S.A. , because the U.S. cannot trade with Cuba.

The U.S. can however trade Agricultural goods and Medicine.

So if a can of Coke sells for 85 cents in a store , and the exchange rate is 25 pesos for a dollar , then each Cuban Peso is equivalent to .4 cents .

.4 cents x 21 = .84 so the price in Pesos would be 21 pesos

Major Holidays
May 1 is May Day ( Labor Day ) worldwide
May 20 th is Cuba's Independence Day from Spain
July 26th is Cuba Revolutionary Day

Years spent in school , lets see ....
Pre-school
Kindergarten
Grade school
High School
University
They have different names for it but basically it's the same , the answer should be . As many years as they want because education is FREE.

Teens are same age as Teens in the U.S.

That is a trick question , I hope.

Answer 2

Hello there: Cuban here so I'm going to try to do my best to answer your questions.
The Coke that they sell in Cuba is imported or from Europe or from Brazil or any other Latin American country not directly from the USA because of the embargo. They don't sell this products in pesos only on CUC's (the Cuban equivalent of any foreign money,dollars ,euros,etc).1 CUC is around more or less depend on the market 25 pesos.A can of Coke could cost you around 0.87 CUC that would be in pesos like 19-20 pesos .
The major Holidays in Cuba are :
January 1: Anniversary of the Cuban Revolution.
May 1 :Dia del trabajo ( Labor Day over there)
July 26: Dia de la Rebeldia Nacional ( it commemorates the beginning of the fights that leads to the Cuban Revolution on January 1st 1959).
October 10 :This commemorates the day the slavery ended in Cuba back on the 1800's.
Somebody said May 20 : This is not a Holiday in Cuba is not even mentioned over there because this was the Independence from Spain but begins the problems with USA so they don't consider this day a Holiday.
About the School:
Mandatory Education begans at 5 years old with Preescolar ( preschool)
Then is:Primaria (Primary) First grade to 6
from 6 years to 11 years old.
Then:Secundaria ( secundary) grades 7 to 9 .
From 12 years old to 15.
Then: Preuniversitario(The HIGH SCHOOL and College equivalent )
10 to 12 grade
from 15 to 18 years old.
Notice that I put HIGH School and College because the classes that we take are basicly preparation for University
Then after all that you could choose or the University or a Technical career .University is 5 more years and Technical is 3.
About your last question: Teens are the same age everywhere,In Spanish mean Adolescencia which is the age between 12 and 18.
There's not stupids questions the only stupid question is the one that you don't ask.
