Answer:
91.42 crates
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
Greatest Number of 140kg crates = x
weight of crate = 140-kilogram
Weight of other shipment = 13200 kilograms
greatest weight of container = 26000 kilograms
Weight of other shipment + (weight of crate * number of crates) ≤ greatest weight of container
13,200 + 140x ≤ 26,000
140x ≤ 26,000 - 13,200
140x ≤ 12,800
x ≤ 12,800/140
x ≤ 91.42 kilograms
Greatest Number of 140kg crates = 91.42 crates
-13 and -14
They both are consecutive negative integers that multiply to 182.
