Answer:

2400 laborers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let N be the amount of laborers employed at the plant. The amount of heaters produced by all workers in an hour is:

heaters = 0.15heaters/hour * N

In a month the total amunt of heaters will be:

heaters = 0.15 * N * 160

Since this has to be 57600 to meet the expected demand:

57600 = 0.15 * N * 160   Solving for N we get:

N = 57600 / (0.15 * 160) = 2400 laborers

How do you use compatible numbers to estimate the quotient $595 divided by 25
storchak [24]
Well, 25 certainly doesn't divide evenly into 595, but it does divide into 600, which is <em>very</em> close to 595. So if we divide 600 by 25, we can get a rough estimate of what 595 divided by 25 is.
\frac{600}{25} = 6* \frac{100}{25} = 6* 4=24
