Question

company use to make 460 shirts?
A. 4
B. 115
C. 810
+
D. 1840

Answer 1

It would be D. 1840 buttons.

460 divide 70= 6.5714

Multiply how many buttons to make 70 shirts. 280x6.5714=1839.1960.

Change 1839 to a 1840 since there isn’t any 1839 and 1840 is about close to 1839.

Final Result: 1840 buttons.

Answer 2

The answer is d: 280/70 =4 buttons per shirt multiply 460*4=1840 buttons needed
