Amy, Bruce and Carlos collected a total of 168 pounds of cans to recycle. Bruce collected 1/3 the number of pounds of cans Carlo
s collected. Amy collected the same number of pounds of cans as Bruce and Carlos combined. Let c represent the number of pounds of cans Carlos collected. Write an equation, in terms of c, that expression the relationship between the number of pounds of can collected by each student and the total weight of the cans collected. I just need help setting up an equation. I already found out what they each collected.
3 Though there are seven people, it would only be 3 full committees. They would either find an eighth person or have a group of 3 with one of the committees. Hope this helps!
