The maximum number of microwave ovens the two employees can take on the elevator is 7.

<h3>How to find the maximum number of microwave ovens the two employees can take on the elevator?</h3>

To solve the question, we have to find the simple equation showing the relationship between all the weights an the maximum weight the elevator can carry

Let

  • x = number of microwave ovens

Since the micro wave weighs 45 pounds, the total weight of microwave ovens is W = 45x.

Also, there are 20 televisions on the elevator. If each television weighs 85 pounds, the total weight of televisions is W' = 20 × 85 = 1700 pounds

Also, the weight of the equipment and the two employees is W" = 400 pounds.

Since the maximum weight on the elevator is 2400 pounds, we have that the required simple equation is

W + W' + W" = 2400

45x + 1700 + 400 = 2400

45x + 2100 = 2400

45x = 2400 - 2100

45x = 300

x = 300/45

x = 6.67

x ≅ 7

So, the maximum number of microwave ovens the two employees can take on the elevator is 7.

You factor out primes from the root, for example:
root 100
you can get 10 from it, or we'll use 5

100/5=20
20/5=4
root 4= 2
because there are 2 "5" we can bring that out of the root, there are 2 "2" so we bring that out too.
When a number is taking out of a root, the 2 exact same numbers become one. in this case, there are ONE 5 and ONE 2 outside the root. then You multiply 5 and 2 together, and you get 10
