A company wants to make 250 protractors and 60 calculators every hour. A given worker can either make 10 protractors or 4 calculators per hour. How many workers will the company need to make the exact amount of products every hour?



Answer :

Answer:

40 workers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's calculate the number of workers needed separately for protractors and calculators.

For protractors:

To make 250 protractors per hour, each worker can make 10 protractors per hour.

250 ÷ 10 = 25 workers

For calculators:

To make 60 calculators per hour, each worker can make 4 calculators per hour.

60 ÷ 4 = 15 workers

Then we take

25 + 15 = 40 workers

So, the company will need a total of 40 workers to make the exact amount of products every hour.
