Question

question 1-4
a candy factory makes 238 chocolate bars and 142 peanut butter chocolate bars an hour.
the candy factory makes the candy bars for eight hours.
at the end of the eight - hour workday, the factory packages a variety of candy bars into boxes that can hold 25 candy bars each.

at the end of the day, how many full boxes of 25 candy bars will the factory be able to fill?

○ 122 boxes
○ 121 boxes
○ 120 boxes
○ 15 boxes

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate total candy bars per hour

First, find the total number of candy bars made per hour by adding the number of chocolate bars and peanut butter chocolate bars. So, \(238 + 142 = 380\) candy bars per hour.

Step2: Calculate total candy bars in 8 hours

Multiply the number of candy bars per hour by the number of hours (8) to get the total number of candy bars made in a day. So, \(380\times8 = 3040\) candy bars in total.

Step3: Calculate number of full boxes

Divide the total number of candy bars by the number of candy bars each box can hold (25) to find the number of full boxes. So, \(\frac{3040}{25}=121.6\). Since we need the number of full boxes, we take the integer part, which is 121.

Answer:

B. 121 boxes
