Answer:

what's the question?

Explanation:

If the question is if they can collect enough cans in 5 months, then no.

3.75 times 5 is 18.75 which is less than 20.5.

The students would have to collect more because if they collect 3.75 each month then by the 5th month they’d only collect 18.75. The students would have to collect 4.1 pounds each month to make their goal.
