Question

Johnson makes toy cars. He wants to make 1,500.

Johnson can make 18 cars a day. He has already made
492. How many days will it take him to get to 1,500?

Answer 1

56

Explanation:

Subtract 492 from 1500 to get how many toys he needs, you get 1008. Now divide it by 18, you get 56.

Answer 2

56 days

Explanation:

Total cars Johnson wants to make = 1500

Cars he has already made = 492

Cars left to make = 1500 - 492 = 1008

Give he can make 18 cars per day,

number of days = cars left to make ÷ 18 = 1008 ÷ 18 = 56

So it will take him 56 days to get to 1500 cars
