The number of records that each file drawer can hold = 50 clients
The number of drawers in each cabinet = 5
Total number of clients that the office has = 600
The total number of files that a cabinet can hold = 50 * 5
                                                                             = 250
Then
The number of cabinets that needs to be ordered = 600/250
                                                                                 = 12/5
                                                                                 = 2 2/5
So 3 cabinets need to be ordered by the company. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand.

Your car gets about 20 miles per gallon. You are planning to drive to
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

42.5 or 43

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you need to travel 850 miles, and you can travel 20 miles per gallon, you should divide 850 by 20 to get the number of gas cans needed. In doing so, you get 42.5 gas cans, but since it may be asking for whole cans rather than part of a gas can, you might want to write 43 instead. If you were to round down to 42, you would not have enough gas to finish the trip, so you should round up to 43. So, it is up to you if you want to write 42.5 or 43.

Hope this helped somewhat! ;(
