To find the number of days it will take to fill an order of 75 toys, we can set up a proportion.
If Jamal is averaging 8 toys every 5 days, we can set up the proportion:
8 toys / 5 days = 75 toys / x days
To solve for x, we can cross multiply:
8x = 75 * 5
8x = 375
x = 375 / 8
x ≈ 46.875
Rounding to the nearest whole number, it will take approximately 47 days to fill an order of 75 toys.
