Astrid is in charge of building a new fleet of ships. Each ship requires 40 tons of wood, and accommodates 300 sailors. She receives a delivery of 4 tons of wood each day. The deliveries can continue for 100 days at most, afterwards the weather is too bad to allow them. Overall, she wants to build enough ships to accommodate at least 2100 sailors. How much wood does Astrid need to accommodate 2100 sailors? -Khan Academy

Astrid needs 280 tons of wood

Step-by-step explanation:

Because:

1 ship requires 40 tons of wood=accomodates 300 sailors

We must:

2100, sailors needed to be accomodated

÷

300, sailors that can be accomodated by 1 ship that requires 40 tons of wood

=7 groups of 300 sailors that can be accomodated by 1 ship that requires 40 tons of wood.

So:

I ship that requires 40 tons of wood × the 7, groups = 280 tons of wood.

I hope this helps! Im sorry its too complicated.

Simplier:

2100 ÷ 300= 7

40 × 7= 280
