Max has 8 8 boxes of cans for a food drive. Each box has 17 17 cans. Max gives half of the boxes to his teacher. Write an expression that represents the total number of cans in all the boxes that his teacher has.

Total cans = 17 (4)

Step-by-step explanation:

If Max has 8 boxes and gives half of the boxes to his teacher, then the teacher has 4 boxes.

Now, the teacher has 4 boxes but each box has 17 cans inside. To represent how many cans the teacher has, we will need to multiply the number of boxes by the number of cans each box has,

Then, the Total number of cans = = 68.

Thus, the expression that represents the total number of cans in all the boxes that the teacher has would be: Total cans = 17 (4)
