A food co.packs 24 cans of tuna into a box. The co.has 768 cans to box. If they sell a full box for $12,how much money will the food co.make on these boxes?
$12 * 768/24 = ?
To determine how much money the food company will make on these boxes, we need to find out how many boxes can be packed with the given 768 cans of tuna. Then we can multiply the number of boxes by the selling price of each box.
To find the number of boxes that can be packed:
Divide the total number of cans (768) by the number of cans in each box (24):
768 cans ÷ 24 cans/box = 32 boxes
Now that we know there are 32 boxes, we can calculate the total amount of money the food company will make:
Multiply the number of boxes (32) by the selling price of each box ($12):
32 boxes × $12/box = $384
Therefore, the food company will make $384 on these boxes.
