At a jeans factory, a random quality check found 8 pairs defective and 292 pairs with no problems. How many defective pairs can be expected in the inventory of 3,000 pairs of jeans?
is the answer 80 jeans?
Y/N
if not, here are the other choices:
82 pairs
292 pairs
375 pairs


Sagot :

[tex]8+292=300[/tex]

8 out of 300 were defective.

[tex] \frac{8}{300}=\frac{x}{3000} \\ \\ 8*3000=300*x \\ \\ 24000=300x \\ \\ 80=x [/tex]

80 pairs were defective
Yes, 80 pairs. If you add the 8 pairs back on to 292 it will equal 300. Add a zero to that 300 and the 8, and there's your answer. 80 pairs defective.
