An empty container has a mass of 600 grams. when 8 cans of equal mass are put into the container, the filled container has a mass of 7 kilograms. what is the mass of each can in grams? a. 750 grams b. 800 grams c. 900 grams d. 950 grams

Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the mass of the empty container is 600 gr

And when they put 8 cans of equal mass then the final weight of the container is 7 kilograms or 7000 grams

If we call x the weight of the cans then this situation can be represented by the following linear equation.

Now we solve the equation for the variable x.
