A store wants employees to start wearing uniforms to work. The plans to purchase the uniforms and hand out 5 uniforms to every employee one for each day or the week. Uniforms come in packs of 8, and the store plans to purchase 56 packs of uniforms. How many employees can the store give uniforms to?

89 employees

Step-by-step explanation:

Uniforms come in packs of 8, and the store plans to purchase 56 packs of uniforms.

This means

1 pack = 8 uniforms

56 packs = x uniforms

Cross Multiply

x = 56 × 8 uniforms

x = 448 uniforms

The plan is to hand out 5 uniforms to every employee one for each day or the week.

Hence, the number of employees that the store can give can uniforms to is calculated as:

5 uniforms = 1 employee

448 uniforms = x employees

Cross Multiply

5x = 448 × 1 employee

x = 448/5

x = 89.6 employees.

Since a person cannot be represented by decimal, the store can give uniforms to 89 employees
