Respuesta :

Answer:

C. 31

Step-by-step explanation:

3000 there are 3-4 errors

If we first divide 24,000 by 3,000, will get 8

then since there a error for each 3,000 books, we do 8 x 4 = 32 and 8 x 3 = 24

32 (8 x 4)  the max amount of printing errors

24 (8 x 3) the minimum amount of printing errors

So we should expect 24-32 printing errors

Only answer between the numbers is c. 31
