    Shane could have collected more than 911 Cans

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We are asked to write an inequality to find the number of cans, S that Shane could have collected:

    Cans collected by Shane and Abha > 2000

    S + A > 2000

    Abha collected 178 more cans than Shane did.

    A = 178 + S

    Put value of A in the above inequality

    S + 178 + S > 2000

    2S + 178 > 2000

    2S > 2000 - 178

    2S > 1822

    S > 911
