Point of Reflection – Reconvene

Welcome back! So, what were your thoughts?

We use 220 boxes to hand package bottles and produce 197 packs for sale, so we divide 197 by 220 and multiply by 100 to get the percentage yield:

begin mathsize 18px style 197 over 220 space cross times space 100 space equals space 89.54 percent sign end style

And our loss is given by subtracting the percentage yield from 100%:

begin mathsize 18px style 100 percent sign space minus space 89.54 percent sign space equals space 10.45 percent sign end style

And it’s time to fire the box packer!
