Answer:

There will be 24 cans of vegetables.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 8 cans of soup. There are 3 times as many cans of vegetables.

Let the number of cans of vegetables be represented by x.

So, when there are 3 times as many cans of vegetables, we have :

$x=3(8)$

x = 24

Therefore, there will be 24 cans of vegetables.
