Abattery factory typically produces 12,000 batteries per day and uses 50 boxes for packing the batteries. if the number of boxes needed for packing is proportional to the number of batteries produced, how many more boxes would be needed on a day when 18,000 batteries are produced?

25 more boxes is needed

Step-by-step explanation:

12000 batteries require 50 boxes. Let's find the unit rate.

That is, how many batteries are in each box??

That's 12,000/50!

12,000/50 = 240 batteries per box

Now, to find how many boxes we would need for 18,000 batteries, we will have to divide the total (18000) by 240(number of batteries per box). That is:

18,000/240 = 75 boxes

We would need 75 boxes to pack 18,000 batteries.

We want "how many MORE boxes needed", so we will the excess:

75 - 50 = 25 more boxes is needed

3/6 chance

step-by-step explanation:

half of the nubers are odd numbers (1,3,5) which in that case if you would be told to simplify it would be 1/2
