    1 ton=2000lb

    total weight=2000

    we want total weight=weight of cans

    weight of cans=weight of 1 can times number of cans

    W of cans=1/25c

    total weight=weight of cans

    2000=1/25c

    times 25/1 both sides

    50000=c

    50,000 cans

    50,000 cans

    because if 1 can = 1/25 lb

    the 25 cans = 1lb

    and 1 ton = 2,000lbs

    so 25x2,000=50,000
