Answer 1

Answer:

(a)1000 AA Batteries in one Case

(b)10,000 AA Batteries in One carton

(c)100,000 AA Batteries in Ten cartons

Step-by-step explanation:

The Store sells AA batteries in the order below:

• 10 batteries in 1 packages
• 10 packages in 1 box
• 10 boxes in 1 case
• 10 cases in 1 Carton

(a) We want to determine how many AA batteries are in 1 Case

Using Multiplication

Number of AA Batteries in 1 Case = 10 Batteries X 10 package X 10 box

=1000 AA Batteries

(b)We want to determine how many AA batteries are in 1 Carton

From Part (a),

There are 1000 AA Batteries in 1 Case

Since there are 10 Cases in 1 carton

Number of Batteries in 1 carton = 10 X 1000 =10,000 AA Batteries

(c)10 Cartons

1 carton = 10000 AA Batteries

Therefore, 10 Cartons = 10 X 10000 =100,000 AA Batteries
