A new customer is sending 367 tapes to us to be stored. We can fit 25 tapes per shelf, how many shelves will we need for this client?

At my work, we charge our clients $3.25 for every box they receive from us. If we send a customer 21 boxes, how much will we have to charge them for this? Hope you enjoy solving these problems. Diana

Hi   Everyone, It's Diana here again,Blake's mum. I have a couple more problems that I need your help with solving.

1. ExxonMobil want to come to my work to have a look at the core we store for them for a well called Flounder 6. We store 225 metres of core for this well. We have 12 special tables we use to lay out the core. Each table will hold 15 metres of core each. Can you help me work out if I have enough tables to lay out all the core. If I don't have enough tables, how many more do I need?

2. A new customer contacted me last week and wants to have 4 permanent secure destruction bins delivered to their office as soon as possible. They want these bins emptied fortnightly (twice a month). The initial delivery for these 6 bins is $35.00. Each fortnight when we empty the bins we charge the client $23.00 per bin. We also charge the client $2.50 rental per bin per month. If the new bins were delivered on 2nd June, and they are emptied on 16th June and 30th June, how much will I have to charge this client at the end of June?

Hope you can help me out... Diana
