Answer:

89 employees

Step-by-step explanation:

Uniforms come in packs of 8, and the store plans to purchase 56 packs of uniforms.

This means

1 pack = 8 uniforms

56 packs = x uniforms

Cross Multiply

x = 56 × 8 uniforms

x = 448 uniforms

The plan is to hand out 5 uniforms to every employee one for each day or the week.

Hence, the number of employees that the store can give can uniforms to is calculated as:

5 uniforms = 1 employee

448 uniforms = x employees

Cross Multiply

5x = 448 × 1 employee

x = 448/5

x = 89.6 employees.

Since a person cannot be represented by decimal, the store can give uniforms to 89 employees
