Charlie tests the light bulbs manufactured in a factory. He found that 3 bulbs out of every 200 bulbs he tested were damaged. If he tested 3,400 bulbs, how many damaged bulbs would he be expected to find?

Answer:

51 bulbs would be the expected amount he would find if he tested 3400

Explanation:


(3)/(200) x 17 =
(51)/(3400)

Multiply 17 by both numbers as 300 times 17 would equal 3400 so you'll get 51 by multiplying 17 and 3
