Question

The Clearview Window Washing Company has a contract to wash 3,082 on a 23-story building. The company will wash the windows on the first three floors on the first day. If there are the same number of windows on each floor, how many windows will the company wash on the first day? Explain the steps to solve.

Answer 1

Answer: There are 402 windows that the company will wash on the first day.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of windows = 3082

Number of floors on a building = 23

So, Number of windows on each floor is given by

`(3082)/(23)=134`

If the company wash the windows on the first three floors on the first day.

So, Number of windows will the company wash on first day would be

`134* 3\\\\=402`

Hence, there are 402 windows that the company will wash on the first day.
