Answer:

18 trucks of delivery

Step-by-step explanation:

Total pallets of concrete blocks ordered = 252 pallets

If each truck can carry 14pallets, then;

1 truck = 14pallets

To determine the number of delivery truck 252pallets can carry, we can express this as:

x truck = 252pallets

Divide both expressions

1/x = 14/252

Cross multiply

14x = 1×252

14x = 252

x = 252/14

x = 18

Hence the manger should expect 1 18 trucks of delivery
