A light bulb manufacturer found that 3 out of every 268 light bulbs in every batch were bad. If they produced 22,158 light bulbs how many are bad

Answer 1

To find out how many bad light bulbs are in the batch, we first need to calculate the ratio of bad light bulbs to total light bulbs.

3 out of every 268 light bulbs are bad, so the ratio of bad light bulbs to total light bulbs is 3/268.

The total number of light bulbs produced is 22,158.

Now, we can calculate the number of bad light bulbs in the batch by multiplying the total number of light bulbs by the ratio of bad light bulbs to total light bulbs:

22,158 * (3/268) ≈ 249

So, approximately 249 light bulbs out of the 22,158 produced are bad.
