In order to package a bottle of vitamins, 1 plastic bottle, one plastic cap, 2 labels, and 50 vitamins are required. If the manufacturing plant has 4000 vitamins, 150 bottles, 125 caps, and 200 labels, how many packaged vitamins can be produced?

#80# packages of vitamin

Explanation:

As we need #50# vitamins for every package, #4000# vitamins means we can have #4000/50=80# packages

As we need #1# bottle for every package, #150# bottles means we can have #150/1=150# packages

As we need #1# cap for every package, #125# caps means we can have #125/1=125# packages

As we need #2# labels for every package, #200# labels means we can have #200/1=200# packages

The least number of packages that can be madeis #80#

We need all i.e #1# plastic bottle, one plastic cap, #2# labels and #50# vitaminst for each package, it is apparent that we cannot have more than #80# packages of vitamin. After #80# packages of vitamin, vitamins will be exhausted, though we may left with bottles, caps and labels,
