Question 210840: A certain store ordered 480 cases of juice. How many pallets were required to ship the order?

1 pallet = 45 bundles 1 bundle = 32 cases 1 case = 12 cans 1 can = 218.4 ml

(480 cases)x(1 bundle/32 cases)x(1 pallet/45 bundles)
Notice that in the numerators I've got
cases, bundles, and pallets
In the denominators I've got
cases and bundles which cancel out,
and I'm left with pallets

One-third of a pallet is required to ship 480 cases
