They have collected 375 cans of food.

Step-by-step explanation:

In conducting a canned-food drive, the goal of the school is to collect a total of 500 cans of food. They have reached 6/8 of their goal. This means that they have collected 6/8 of the total number of cans of food that they intended to collect. The number of cans of food that they have collected would be

6/8 * 500 = 375 cans of food.
