Answer:                                                                                                                   Ms. Campbell's class collected 48 cans in 6 days. The ratio is 8 cans per day.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Days of collection of the recycling project = 3

Number of cans collected in the first 3 days = 24

Students collect the same number of cans each day

2. How many cans did Ms. Campbell's class collect in 6 days?

Let's use the Direct Rule of Three, for answering this question:

Cans     Days

24            3

x              6

3x = 144

x = 144/3

x = 48

Ms. Campbell's class collected 48 cans in 6 days.
