Question

In a city 69300 kg of garbage is produced every day. One garbage truck can carry 55 kg of garbage at a time and each truck can make 10 trips in a day. How many trucks will be required to clear the garbage everyday ?

Explain.

Answer 1

Total garbage produced = 69300 kg
Weight carried by one garbage truck at a time = 55 kg
Number of trips per day = 10
Total weight carried by the truck in one day = 550 kg
Number of trucks required = 69300/550
=126

Answer 2

since the garbage trucks can carry 550 kg in a day

then the trucks required are

=the total mass of garbage / the mass one truck can take

=69300/550

= 126 trucks
