Two machines at a factory are filling cans of soup. One machine has already filled 180 cans of soup, and fills cans at a rate of 15 per minute. The second machine has already filled 210 cans of soup, and fills cans at a rate of 12 per minute. Write an equation to show when the two machines will have filled the same number of cans of soup. Use x as your variable.
210 - 12x = 180 - 15x
12x + 210 = 15x + 180
12x + 180 = 15x + 210
12x - 210 = 15x - 180
