Answer:
Limiting: Lab covers. Books produced: 75. Excess amounts: In explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Amount that can be produced with just lab covers: 75 books (150/2)
Amount that can be produced with just lined paper: 150 books (7500/50)
Amount that can be produced with graph paper: 120 (3000/25)
Amount that can be produced with staples: Approximately 83 (250/3)
As we can see, the lab covers are limiting as they can only produce 75 books. So, we can only make 75 books.
You will have 3,750 lined paper left over (or 75 books)
(150-75=75 , 75*50=3,750)
You will have 1,125 graph paper left over (or 45 books)
(120-75=45 , 75*25=1,875 , 3000-1875=1125)
And then you will have approximately 25 staples left over (or 8 books)
(83-75=8 , 8*3=225, 250-225=25)
(Hopefully this is correct, I apologize if I messed up)
