Question

Shane y Abha obtuvieron una medalla del equipo que requería que su equipo recolectara no menos de 2000 latas para reciclar. Abha recolectó 178 latas más que Shane.

Answer 1

Answer: Shane collected more than 911 cans

Explanation:

S is the number of cans that shane collected.

A is the number of cans that Abha collected.

We know that:

together collected more than 2000 cans

A + S > 2000

Abha collected 178 more cans that Shane:

A = S + 178

Now, we can replace this equation in the inequality and get:

A + S > 2000

S + 178 + S > 2000

2*S > 2000 - 178 = 1822

S > 1822/2 = 911

This means that shane collected more than 911 cans.
