A shipping container will be used to transport several 120-kilogram crates across the country by rail. The greatest weight that can be loaded into the container is 24500 kilograms. Other shipments weighing 12300 kilograms have already been loaded into the container. What is the greatest number of 120-kilogram crates that can be loaded into the shipping container?

Respuesta :

Answer:

101

Step-by-step explanation:

The leftover weight that can be put onto the container (x)

x = 24500 - 12300

x = 12200

The amount of crates that can be hauled into the container

x = 12200 / 120

= 101.6667

We need a whole number so we round down.

= 101
