A cooler is filled with 24 cans of cherry soda and orange pop. If there are twice as many cans of orange pop as there are of cherry soda, how many cherry sodas are there?
There are C cans of cherry soda in the cooler.
There are twice as many cans of orange pop, so there are 2C cans of orange pop in the cooler.
In all, there are C + 2C = 3C = 24 cans in the cooler.
Therefore, there are C = 24 / 3 = <<24/3=8>>8 cans of cherry soda in the cooler.
