You can put this solution on YOUR website! Are you sure this is not a statistics question? I ask because of the phrase "expected number" in the application.
This is what I came up with:
3500/15 + 4500/40 + 6000/45 = 479.16, which can be rounded to the nearest unit and becomes 479.
I hope this helps. If this is not the answer, write back.
