82 light bulbs are bad.

Calculation:
(22,158 / 268) * 3 = 82.06

Apologies for the error in my previous response. Let's correct it:

To find how many bad light bulbs are in a batch of 22,158 light bulbs, we first need to calculate how many batches there are. Since there are 268 light bulbs in each batch, we can divide the total number of light bulbs by 268:

22,158 / 268 = 82.5

This means there are 82 full batches with 268 light bulbs and a partial batch with the remaining 102 light bulbs.

Since we found that 3 out of every 268 light bulbs in each batch are bad, we can calculate the total number of bad light bulbs in the full batches:

82 full batches x 3 bad bulbs = 246 bad bulbs

Finally, adding the bad bulbs from the partial batch:

246 (from full batches) + 3 (from the partial batch) = 249

Therefore, in a production of 22,158 light bulbs, there are 249 bad light bulbs.

Apologies for the confusion earlier. Let's calculate it again:

Given:
- 3 out of every 268 light bulbs are bad
- 22,158 light bulbs produced

To find out how many are bad, we can set up a proportion:

3/268 = x/22,158

Cross multiply:
268x = 3 * 22,158
268x = 66,474

Now, solve for x:
x = 66,474 / 268
x ≈ 248.55

Rounded to nearest whole number:
Approximately 249 light bulbs are bad out of 22,158 produced.
