Q. The number of sheets of paper available for making notebooks is 75000. Each sheet makes 8 HOW pages of a notebook. Each notebook contains 200 pages. How many notebooks can be made from the paper available?
Calculate total pages: First, calculate the total number of pages that can be made from the sheets of paper.75000 sheets ∗8 pages/sheet =600000 pages.
Find number of notebooks: Next, divide the total number of pages by the number of pages in one notebook to find the number of notebooks.600000 pages ÷200 pages/notebook = 3000 notebooks.
