Answer:

for 8 gram bottle =  2 cases

for 20 gram bottle = 3 cases

for 30 gram bottles = 2 cases

Step-by-step explanation:

Determine how many cases of each bottle type Damien needs to order

i) For 8-gram bottles

available bottles = 156

required amount ≥ 400

extra bottles to be ordered = 400 - 156 = 244 bottles

since case contains 140 bottles , the number of cases to be ordered

= 244 / 140 = 1.74 cases ≈ 2 cases

ii) for 20 gram bottles

available bottles = 78

required amount  ≥ 400

Extra bottles to be ordered = 400 - 78 = 322 bottles

therefore the number of cases = 322 / 140 = 2.3 cases ≈ 3 cases

iii) For 30 gram bottles

available bottles = 132

required amount  ≥ 400

Extra bottles to be ordered = 400 - 132 = 268

therefore the number of cases = 268 / 140 = 1.9 ≈ 2 cases
