To determine the number of supervisors needed for the new warehouse in North Carolina, we first need to understand the staffing requirements as established for the Arizona warehouse.
From your description:
- For every **50 workers**, there are **3 supervisors** needed.
Now, we need to know how many workers will be at the new warehouse in North Carolina. You mentioned that the new warehouse is being built to service stores on the East Coast, but you did not specify the number of workers required for that warehouse.
Assuming the number of workers is the same as Arizona (which you'll need to confirm), let's denote the number of workers at the new North Carolina warehouse as \( W \).
Using the supervisor-to-worker ratio:
1. **Calculate the number of supervisors needed:**
\[
\text{Number of Supervisors} = \left( \frac{W}{50} \right) \times 3
\]
This formula takes the total number of workers, divides it by 50 to determine how many groups of 50 there are, and then multiplies by 3 to find the required number of supervisors.
Please provide the number of workers \( W \) for the new warehouse so we can calculate the exact number of supervisors needed.
