A large bank and strip to 44,000 a small bank and hold 3/4 the volume of a large bin you have already put 17 in the small How many more towels can you store?

1 answer

To determine how many more towels you can store in the small bank, we need to find out the total capacity of the small bank.

You mentioned that a large bank can hold 44,000 towels, and the small bank holds 3/4 of that volume:

\[ \text{Capacity of the small bank} = \frac{3}{4} \times 44,000 = 33,000 \text{ towels} \]

You have already put 17 towels in the small bank, so we subtract that from its total capacity to find out how many more towels can be added:

\[ \text{Remaining capacity} = 33,000 - 17 = 32,983 \text{ towels} \]

Therefore, you can store 32,983 more towels in the small bank.
