Final answer:

The manager can place 504 hats in each package so that there are no hats left over.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how many hats the manager can place in each package with no hats left over, we need to determine the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the total number of hats and the number of packages. In this case, the total number of hats is 504. The GCD of 504 and any number is 504 itself. So, the manager can place 504 hats in each package so that there are no hats left over.
