Miss Coleman's class has already collected 403 cans for a food drive, but the class wants to collect a total of at least 1,000 cans. If each of the 28 students in the class brings an equal number of cans, how many more cans should each student bring for the class to have collected at least 1,000 cans?

    22

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We subtract their goal by their current amount (1000-403) to get 597. We know the class needs at least 597 more cans. We divide 597 (the total needed) by 28 (students) to get 21.3 ... cans per student. Since each student brings an equal number of cans, we must bring in 22 cans each, leaving us with 19 extra cans.
