Answer: 1443.5 gallons

Explanation:

Thw following can be gotten from the question:

Fuel tank capacity = 6800 gallon

Annual demand, A = 68000 gallons

Ordering cost, O= $50

Carrying cost, C = 40% × $2.04 = $0.816

EOQ = ✓2AO/✓C

= ✓(2×68000×50) / ✓0.816

= ✓6800000 / ✓0.816

= 2887

Average inventory = EOQ/2

= 2887/2

= 1443.5 gallons

Therefore, the average inventory will be 1443.5 gallons.

Answer:

400,000

Explanation:

7% of what number = 28,000

(0.07)(X) = 28,000

X = 400,000

(which is less than 700,000. But that makes sense because not everyone living in Michael's city is necessarily part of the labor force. Some could be kids in school, others grandparents who have retired, others people who stay at home and don't work.)
