Question

A manufacturer of bicycles has 4250 wheels, 2755 frames and 2255 handlebars.

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer to your question is  a) 2125 bicycles  

c) No wheels, 630 frames, 130 handlebars.

Explanation:

Data

4250 wheels

2755 frames

2255 handlebars

- To manufacture a bicycle we need:

  2 wheels x bicycle

  1 frame

  1 handlebar

- Divide the number of wheels

   4250/ 2 = 2125 bicycles  / wheels

    2755     = frames

    2255    = handlebars

As the number of pairs of wheels is lower than the number of frames and the number of handlebars we conclude that we can only manufacture 2125 bicycles.

b)

No wheels

Frames = 2755 - 2125 = 630

Handlebars = 2255 - 2125 = 130
