Question

ON YOUR OWN:

Answer 1

Answer:

125 defective jeans

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that;

During inspections, 5 defective pairs of jeans are found in a shipment of 200 pairs of jeans .

We are supposed to determine the number of defective jeans in a shipment of 5000 pairs, if the trend continues.

Therefore;

5 defective = 200 pairs

What about in 5000 pairs?

Number of defective pairs = (5000 × 5 ) ÷ 200

                                            = 125 defective pairs

Thus, in a shipment of 5000 pairs of jeans there will be 125 defective pairs
