A 20-ounce box is filled with cans. Each can weighs 16 ounces. The total weight of the box with cans is 212 ounces. Which equation can be used to find c, the number of cans in the box?
The weight of the box must be subtracted from the total....so we have
16c = (212 - 20)
if your trying to find an answer. 212 divided by 16.
if your looking for an equation. c times 16= 212
oh nuh i waz wrong @^@
