Two machines at a factory or filling cans of soup one machine has already filled 180 cans of soup and filled cans. I rate of 15 per minute the second machine has already filled t 210 cans of soup and fill cans that are rate of 12 per minute right in equation to show when the two machines will have filled the same number of cans of soup use X as your variable
Let X represent the number of minutes it takes for the two machines to have filled the same number of cans of soup.
200 + 15X = 210 + 12X
Solving for X, we get:
3X = 10
X = 10/3
Therefore, it will take approximately 3.33 minutes for the two machines to have filled the same number of cans of soup.
