Answer:

Hence he will be 4 large containers and 4 small containers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Let the number of small containers be x

and the number of large containers be y

x+y= 8---------1

also

2x+4y= 24-----2

the system of equation to solve the problem is

x+y= 8

2x+4y= 24

from 1

x=8-y

put this in 2

2(8-y)+4y= 24

16-2y+4y= 24

2y= 24-16

2y= 8

y= 8/2

y= 4

put y= 4 in 1

x+4=8

x= 8-4

x= 4

Hence he will be 4 large containers and 4 small containers
