You can put this solution on YOUR website!
(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
480%2A%281%2F32%29%2A%281%2F45%29+=+1%2F3
One-third of a pallet is required to ship 480 cases
