A bakery supplier receives an order for 2 tons of flour from a bakery chain. the flour is shipped in crates. Each crate holds eight 10-pound bags of flour. How many crates does the supplier need to ship to fulfill the order
Since the order is 4,000 pounds f flour, and each crate contains 80 pounds, the answer is 50 crates because 4,000 divided by 80 results in a quotient of 50, therefore, fifty crates of 80 pounds of flour, fills the order of two tons of flour.
