Answer:

28 , 24-inch screwdrivers

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of screwdrivers that can be purchased is = 70

4 - inch length screwdrivers = 10

6- inch length screwdrivers = 12

8- inch length screwdrivers = 20

Total = 20 +12 +10 = 42

Remaining = 70-42 = 28

So, heavy 24-inch screwdrivers = 28
