Answer:

3/42 or 1/14 if they have you reducing the number

Step-by-step explanation:

There are only 3 cans of black bean soup in the whole pantry. 3 is our numerator.

The denominator will be the total number of cans in the pantry, so

22 + 3 + 12 + 1 + 4 = 42

If you took a can of soup out of the pantry 42 times, 3 times it would be black bean soup
