Answer 2

First, let's find the total number of crayons produced each day:

500 boxes/day x 16 crayons/box = 8,000 crayons/day

Since each crayon uses 400 milliliters of melted wax, the total amount of wax used in one day can be found by multiplying the number of crayons by the amount of wax used per crayon and converting from milliliters to liters:

8,000 crayons/day x 400 mL/crayon x 1 L/1000 mL = 3,200 liters/day

Therefore, Bright Designs Crayon Factory uses 3,200 liters of melted wax each day.
