They sold 50 pounds in January.

To find this you just need to divide 250 by 5 since the amount sold in May is 5 times more.

Hope this helps :)

A company manufactures cell phones. In August, a random sample of 125 cell phones was inspected, and 3 phones were found to be d

german

Answer:

192

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how many phones are expected to be defective, we need to represent the values in a fraction.

$\dfrac{x}{8000}=\dfrac{3}{125}$

x = number of defective phones

Now we can solve this using algebra.

To get the value of x we need to multiply both sides by 8000 to leave x alone.

$x=\dfrac{3}{125}(8000)$

$x=0.024(8000)$

$x=192$

So around 192 cell phones are expected to be defective out of 8000 phones.
