A Florida factory produces fishing reels at a rate of 800 per day, every day. In April, they are forced to cut their production by 20% due to an aluminum shortage. A chain of sporting goods stores orders 20,000 fishing reels. since the factory will not be able to produce enough fishing reels in the 30 days of April to meet this order, how many reels will they be short?

Multiply 800 to 4/5 to see how much they make per day.

800 * 4/5 = 640

So, they make 640 fishing reels per day.

Multiply this to 30:

640 * 30 = 19,200

So they will make 19,200 fishing reels in 30 days.

This is not enough for the order.

Answer:

800  more reels

Step-by-step explanation:

Decrease of 20 percent means

800 * .20

160 reels less

800-160 = 640 reels produced

There are 30 days in April

days * 640 reel/ day

30 * 640 = 19200  reels produced in 30 days

They need 20000 reels

20000-19200 = 800  more reels
