Renna pushes the elevator button, but the elevator does not move. The mass limit for the elevator is 450 kg, but Renna and her load of identical packages mass a total of 620kg. Each package has a mass of 37.4kg.
Write an inequality to determine the number of packages, p, Renna could remove from the elevator to meet the mass requirement.

Respuesta :

450 kg < 620 kg
620 kg/ 37.4 kg = 16.5775401
16.5775401 ~ 16.60~ 17

Renna would need to take 17 packages off the elevator
