A soft drink manufacturer produces 3408 cans in an 8-hour day. Cans are packaged 24 to a case. How many cases are produced each week? each month? (Assume one week is 40 hours, and one month is four weeks.)
Question
Answer:
we know thatPart a) How many cases are produced each week?
A soft drink manufacturer produces
3408 cans in ------------------> 8-hour day
X cans-------------------------> 40 hour (week)
X=40*3408/8---------> X=17040 cans/week
if 1 case ------------------> 24 cans
X case----------------------> 17040 cans
X=17040/24---------> X=710 cases
then answer Part a) is 710 cases for week
Part b) How many cases are produced each month?
A soft drink manufacturer produces
17040 cans in ------------------> 1 week
X cans-------------------------> 4 week
X=4*17040---------> X=68160 cans/ month
if 1 case ------------------> 24 cans
X case----------------------> 68160 cans
X=68160/24---------> X=2840 cases
then answer Part b) is 2840 cases for month
