Dina, the information given is:

• Defective pairs of jeans = 8

,

• No problem jeans = 292

,

• Total jeans = 8 + 292 = 300

,

If the inventory is 3,000, that is 300 * 10, you just have to multiply by 10 the defective pairs quantity and that is the answer.

Student unresponsive, no interaction.
