A referral hospital procured 25750 face masks from KEMSA. The masks were packed in packets. Each packet contained 50 pieces. If KEMSA was selling each packet at sh.180, how much money did the hospital pay for the masks?

Answer 1

The hospital bought 25750 face masks in total, which were packed in packets of 50 each.

Therefore, the hospital bought 25750 / 50 = 515 packets of face masks.

Each packet cost sh.180, so the total cost for the face masks is 515 * 180 = sh.92700.

Therefore, the hospital paid sh.92700 for the masks.
