Question

A candle-making unit makes 8750 candles in a day. How many candles can they make in 48 days? If 50 candles can be packed in a box, how many boxes are required to pack them?

Answer 1

Answer:

420,000 Candles

8400 Boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

Part (1)

8750 Candles = 1 Day

X Candles = 48 Days ( Cross Multiply )

48x8750 = X Candles

420,000 = X Candles ( Answer )

Part (2)

50 Candles = 1 Box

420,000 Candles = X Boxes ( Cross Multiply )

420,000 Candles = 50xX Boxes

420,000÷50 = X Boxes

8400 = X ( Boxes )
