Question

The number of sheets of paper available for making notebooks is 75,000.

Each sheet makes 8 pages of a notebook. Each notebook contains 200
pages. How many notebooks can be made from the paper available?

Answer 1

If each sheet of paper were to make 8 pages, then you must multiply 75,000 by 8 to find the total amount of pages will be available to make notebooks.

75,000x8=600,000

Now, each notebook contains 200 pages so you must divide 600,000 by 200 to distribute the pages within the notebooks.

600,000/200=3,000.

In conclusion, 3,000 notebooks can be made from the paper currently available in your problem
