How many trucks would be needed to transport one million items, if each truck could carry 100 boxes, each box contains 10 packs and each pack contained 100 items? Answer: ________
Explanation
To find the number of trucks needed to transport one million items, we can work backwards. Each truck can carry 100 boxes, and each box contains 10 packs. Since each pack contains 100 items, each box can carry 10 packs * 100 items = 1000 items. Therefore, each truck can carry 1000 items. To transport one million items, we would need 1,000,000 items / 1000 items per truck = 1000 trucks. Therefore, the answer is 10 trucks.Rate this question:

If a product generate a profit of $36,000 with operating costs of $204,000; what is the profit expressed as a percentage of total revenue? ANSWER: ________
Correct Answer
15%Explanation
The profit expressed as a percentage of total revenue can be calculated by dividing the profit by the total revenue and multiplying by 100. In this case, the profit is $36,000 and the total revenue can be calculated by adding the profit to the operating costs, which is $204,000. Therefore, the total revenue is $240,000. Dividing the profit of $36,000 by the total revenue of $240,000 and multiplying by 100 gives us 15%, which is the profit expressed as a percentage of total revenue.Rate this question:

All but 13 seats were taken on a busy train service made up of 8 carriages each with 72 seats. If 40 people were standing how many passengers were on the service? ANSWER: ________
Correct Answer
