After 24 pencil had sharpened, the pencil sharpener receptacle is full. If receptacle is emptied in average of twice a day, how many times does someone in the class of 20 sharpens a pencil in five day ?

Answer :

Answer:

12 Pencils Sharpened

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the sharpener receptacle is emptied out 2 times every day.

Do 24*2 to get 48 pencils sharpened each day.

Now do 48/20 to get how many pencils a single person sharpens each day. Resulting in 2.4 pencils each day for 1 person.

Multiple 2.4 by 5 (Amount of days) to get 12 pencils in 5 days.
