Question

Tony is a medical sales representative. His company has set a goal for him to sell 4,200 bottles of a new medicine in 3 months. If his sales are consistent from month to month, how many bottles does he have to sell each month to meet his goal?

Answer 1

You need to find the unit rate for sales per month:
4200 bottles/ 3 months =  1400 bottles / 1 month

Your answer: 1400 bottles per month

Answer 2

Answer: There are 1400 bottles he has to sell each month to meet his goal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of bottles of a new medicine = 4200

Number of months = 3

We need to find the number of bottles he has to sell each month to meet his goals.

So, Number of bottles in each month would be

$\dfrac{4200}{3}\\\\=1400$

Hence, there are 1400 bottles he has to sell each month to meet his goal.
