Answer:
108 Cans
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of cans the truck starts with be R. Hence given that 1/6 of the soda cans were sold before noon, the remaining amount
= R - 1/6 R
= 5/6 R
If it then sold 3/5 of the remaining cans,the reminder after this sale
= 5/6 R - 3/5 * 5/6 R
= 5/6 R - 1/2 R
Where 1/2 R represents the quantity sold, the reminder after this sale
= 1/3 R
if the food truck sold 72 cans in all then,
1/6 R + 1/2 R = 72
2/3 R = 72
R = 72 * 3/2
= 108
