Bob brought 40% of the collected canned goods to the food pantry, 11
bob brought 160 cans to the pantry, how many cans were collected?

The correct answer is 400 total cans.

Since we know that Bob brought 40% of the cans, we can set up this equation with (c) as our missing value.

c x .4 = 160

divide 160 by .4

c = 400 cans

step-by-step explanation:

always plug in x. in this case, x equals 4.

i'm going to first solve 4(2+3x)

1) 4(2+3(4)) use pemdas to solve.

i'm going to multiply whats in the parenthesis first, so 3 times 4=12.

2)4 (2+12) i'm then going to multiply 4 by both numbers in the parenthesis (because multiplying comes before adding)

4 times 2= 8.   4 times 12= 48

4) (8+48)= 56 (answer)

i'm then going to solve 8+12x and plug in 4 for x.

1) 8 +12(4)

multiplying comes before adding, so i'm gonna multiply 12 and 4.

12 times 4= 48.

2) 8+48=56

both equal the same!

huh? im pretty sure it is in 199
