The mountain springs water company has two departments, purifying and bottling. the bottling department received 58,000 liters from the purifying department. during the period, the bottling department completed 56,000 liters, including 4,000 liters of work in process at the beginning of the period. the ending work in process was 6,000 liters. how many liters were started and completed during the period?

52,000 liters.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the Bottling Department completed 56,000 liters, but this is not the total amount of production started and completed, because there are 4,000 liters that are equivalent to work-in-process. In other words, those 4,000 liters equals a partially finished product that is awaiting further processing.

Because we want to know what the final finished product is, we simply subtract these 4000 liters.

Mathematically:

L = 52,000
