Ari stocks shelves at a grocery store. he puts 35 cans of juice in each display case. the case has 4 shelves with an equal number of cans, and one shelf with only 3 cans. how many cans are on each of the equal shelves?

There are 8 cans on each of the equal shelves

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of cans put in display = 35

Shelves with equal no of cans =  4 Shelves

And one shelf displays only 3 cans

Therefore, 4 shelves with equal no of cans + 1 shelf with 3 cans = 35 cans

Let us assume equal no. of cans be x

We get, 4x + 3 = 35

             4x = 35 - 3

             4x = 32

              x  = 32 ÷ 4

              x = 8

Thus, 4 shelves with equal no of cans contains 8 cans each.
