As the expected number of new claims filed per day is 2.4 and the office is open 5 days per week, to be able to find the expected number of new claims filed per week, you have to multiply the expected number of claims per day for the number of days that the office is open in a week:
Expected number of new claims filed per week= 2.4*5= 12
According to this, the answer is that the expected number of new claims filed per week at this office is 12.
