A worker at a mill is loading 5 pound bags of flour into boxes to deliver to a local warehouse. Each box holds 16 bags of flour. If the warehouse orders 4 tons of flour how many boxes are needed to fulfill the order ?

Respuesta :

Answer:

100

Step-by-step explanation:

volume of 16 bags of flour: 16 x 5 = 80 pounds

We know that: 1 ton = 2,000 pounds -> 4 tons = 2,000 x 4 = 8,000

So we need: 8,000 : 80 = 100 boxes to fulfill the order
