A motor center carries out servicing of cars, which includes the replacement of parts.

Three service technicians can each do 5 services per day . Normally they work Monday to Friday, but
sometimes one technician will also work on Saturday.
Each car requires 1 air filter, 1 oil filter, 1 quantity of engine oil and 4 spark plugs.
The parts are purchased in bulk, and come in boxes containing the quantities shown below.

Air filter............. 8 per box
Oil filter ............ 20 per box
Engine oil ......... 4 per box
Spark plugs ...... 80 per box


How many boxes of each item is it necessary to buy each week, if the motor center is to carry out the maximum possible number of services?

Answer:

1 box of spark plugs, 3 air filter boxes, 1 oil filter box, and 5 boxes of engine oil

Explanation:

the max amount of services that can be done is about 20 per week, including the one on Saturday. so u just multiply the amount needed by the 20 possible services and check to see the amount that comes in each box, then get as many as needed
