To find the unit price per can, divide the total cost of the case of canned vegetables by the number of cans in the case.

Unit price (p = \frac{\text{Total cost of case}}{\text{Number of cans in the case}})

Given that the total cost of the case is $30.96 and there are 24 cans in the case:

(p = \frac{30.96}{24})

Calculating:

(p = 1.29)

So, the unit price per can of vegetables is $1.29.
