mak is the housekeeping manager for a hotel he wants to have 250 bottles of shampoo in storage for hotel guest he see 2 full boxes of 96 each he counts 26 bottles in an open box how many bottles of shampoo should mark order

Answer 1

To find out how many bottles of shampoo Mak should order, we first need to calculate the total number of shampoo bottles he currently has.

1. He has 2 full boxes of 96 bottles each: \[ 2 \times 96 = 192 \text{ bottles} \]

2. He also has 26 bottles in an open box. \[ 192 + 26 = 218 \text{ bottles} \]

3. The hotel wants to have a total of 250 bottles in storage. To find out how many more bottles he needs to order, we subtract the number of bottles he currently has from the desired total: \[ 250 - 218 = 32 \text{ bottles} \]

Therefore, Mak should order 32 bottles of shampoo.
