Kael Vargas · Answer 1

8 (number of soup) times 3 = x (number of vegetable cans)

Brodie Rush · Answer 2

First lets set up an equation to illustrate this situation.

Let # of cans of vegetables be v.

8 (cans of soup) x 3 (3 times more cans of vegetables) = v

v = 8x3

Solve:

v = 8x3

v=24

There are 24 cans of vegetables.
