Answer 1

After calculating the total coffee bags and removing the damaged ones, Kahuna Killer Coffee House can make 89,040 cups of coffee from their remaining stock.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the number of cups of coffee Kahuna Killer Coffee House can make, we first need to determine the total number of coffee bags available after accounting for the damaged goods. We start with 9 pallets, each containing 24 boxes, and each box containing 6 bags. However, there are 4 boxes that are damaged and unusable.

First, we find the initial total number of bags:

• 9 pallets × 24 boxes/pallet × 6 bags/box = 1,296 bags

Next, we subtract the number of bags in the damaged boxes:

• 4 boxes × 6 bags/box = 24 bags

The remaining number of coffee bags is:

• 1,296 bags - 24 bags = 1,272 bags

Since each bag makes 70 cups of coffee, we therefore have:

• 1,272 bags × 70 cups/bag = 89,040 cups

So, the Kahuna Killer Coffee House can make 89,040 cups of coffee using the remaining coffee in their warehouse.
