Question

A warehouse worker ships 25 boxes each day. Every box contains 3 shipping labels. Inventory has 500 shipping labels. How many days will it take to use the inventory of shipping labels? round to the nearest whole.

Answer 1

Answer: It will take 7 days to use the inventory of shipping labels.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Total boxes shipped by warehouse worker per day = 25

Every box contains 3 shipping labels.

Inventory has 500 shipping labels.

Then, the total number of boxes can be made =  (Total  shipping labels) ÷ (labels in each box)

500 ÷ 3  =166.67≈166

Number of days it will take to use the inventory of shipping labels=  (total number of boxes can be made)  ÷  (Total boxes shipped  per day)

= 166÷ 25=6.64≈7

Hence, it will take 7 days to use the inventory of shipping labels.
