Acme Nails made 55,672 nails last year. The Jones Company made more nails than Acme did. Which could be the number of nails made by the Jones Company?

Answer 1

To find a possible number of nails made by the Jones Company, we need to consider any number greater than 55,672, since it is stated that they made more nails than Acme Nails.

Here are some examples of numbers that could represent the production of nails by the Jones Company:

• 55,673
• 60,000
• 100,000
• 70,000
• 80,000
• 60,500

Any whole number greater than 55,672 would be valid.
