Answer:

c = 468 / 13

Step-by-step explanation:

If c is the number of cans of soda in each case, we know that the number of cans in 13 cases is 13 * c = 13c, and since the number of cans in 13 cases is 468 and we know that "is" denotes that we need to use the "=" sign, the equation is 13c = 468. To get rid of the 13, we need to divide both sides of the equation by 13 because division is the opposite of multiplication, therefore the answer is c = 468 / 13.

Answer:

468/13 = c
