Answer 1

48 full

Explanation:

108 X .45 =48.6

Answer 2

When a truck is loaded to 45% of capacity, there are 108 cases on the truck and the 48 cases make the truck to be a full load.

Solution:

Given Data: Truck loaded = 45% of capacity

45% can be written as
`(45)/(100) = 0.45`

Number of cases in truck = 108 cases.

We need to find how many number of cases will be on a full load.

Number of cases will be on a full load = truck loaded capacity × Number of cases in truck

Substitute the given values in the above formulae

Number of cases will be on a full load = 0.45 × 108 = 48.6

48 cases make the truck to be a full load.
