Jamal is creating toys to sell. He is averaging 8 toys every 5 days. If he continues at this rate, how many days will it take to fill an order of 75? Round to the nearest whole number of days.
A. 375 days
B. 10 days
C. 120 days
D. 47 days
To find out how many toys Jamal makes in one day, divide the number of toys he makes in 5 days by 5: 8 toys / 5 days = <<8/5=1.6>>1.6 toys/day
To figure out how many days it takes him to make 75 toys, divide the number of toys by the number of toys he makes each day: 75 toys / 1.6 toys/day = <<75/1.6=46.875>>46.875 days
Rounding to the nearest whole number of days, it will take Jamal 47 days, so the answer is D.
