How it works

Three cities in one day—is there enough time? In the picture, 「とても～ない」 stresses that it is simply impossible.
「とても」 pairs with negative forms such as 「できない」 and 「できません」 to stress that something cannot be done.
Here, 「とても」 does not mean “very.” Together with a negative, it means “cannot possibly do it.”
In the examples, there is too little time or the cost is too high. The point is that it is impossible under these conditions, rather than simply being unwilling.
