Question

Zack is taking inventory of loaves of bread at the grocery store where he works. There are 20 loaves in a full case, and Zack has 3 partially filled cases: 1 case is 12 full, 1 case is 14 full, and 1 case is 25 full. How many total

Answer 1

Answer:

51 loaves

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that one case contains 20 loaves.

-Sum the number of partially filled cases and divide to get complete cases:

$T_{loaves}=12+14+25\\\\=51$

#He has a total of 51 loaves:

$20 loaves = 1 case\\51 loaves=x\\\\x=\frac{51}{20}\\\\x=2 \ rem 11$

Hence, Zack has a total of 51 loaves (2 full cases, 1 partial of 11 loaves)
