When you start your shift, the warehouse has 1,483 ceiling fans. if you pack and ship 32 fans per hour, how many fans will be left in the warehouse at the end of your 8 hour shift?
hi, i'm not sure if you still need the answer but i'll still try to help.
so to work out this question, you must find out how many fans will be packed in 8 hours.
you know:
32 fans / hr
to find this:
= 32 x 8 (multiply by 8 because you have an 8 hour shift)
= 256
then:
= 1483 - 256 (original - 8h shift fans)
= 1227
therefore, 1227 fans will be left in the warehouse at the end of your 8 hour shift.
To answer this question, we need to calculate the total number of fans packed and shipped during your 8-hour shift and then subtract that from the initial quantity of fans in the warehouse.
First, let's calculate the number of fans packed and shipped in one hour: 32 fans/hour.
To find the total number of fans packed and shipped in 8 hours, we multiply the number of fans packed and shipped per hour by the number of hours worked: 32 fans/hour * 8 hours = 256 fans.
Now, to find the number of fans remaining in the warehouse at the end of the shift, we subtract the total number of fans packed and shipped from the initial quantity of fans in the warehouse: 1,483 fans - 256 fans = 1,227 fans.
Therefore, there will be 1,227 fans left in the warehouse at the end of your 8-hour shift.
