Answer: 9072
Step-by-step explanation:
It seems that the number of cans that grades 1 and 2 collect are irrelevant in the problem so you can basically ignore that. Grades 3 and 4 have 6683 cans which is 2389 cans less than grades 5 and 6 so that means grades 5 and 6 have 2389 cans more than 6683. Now you just add 6683 and 2389 to find the cans that grades 5 and 6 have.
6683 + 2389 = 9072
Grades 5 and 6 have 9072 cans
(there are a few typos is the problem and this is my first time answering so I'm really sorry if I got this wrong)
The variable, x, is the amount of carried good.
We know that x<550
also y will be the number of people.
so x=336+y*25 (the total weight is the equipment plus 25 lbs for food for each person)
so we can substitute:
x<550
x=336+y*25
336+y*25<550
subtract 336 from both sides
y*25<214
divide by 25
y<8.56
so it has to less than 8 people.
The greatest number of people in the expedition is 8.
I'd assume you meant there are 5 more trumpet players than flute players.
