Firstly, we need to know the price of each electric screwdriver last year. So if 15 electric screwdrivers cost $300, this would mean that each costs $20. Now, if 45 screwdrivers, having the same cost last year, the cost for each screwdriver would be $6.67. Hope this answers your question. Have a great day!
