To find out how many rolls of newsprint are required, we need to determine the total number of pages that can be printed with the given rolls, and then divide the total number of pages needed by the number of pages that can be printed with each roll.
Given information:
- Number of papers printed: 8762
- Number of pages in each paper: 16
- Number of pages that can be printed with one roll: 6150
To find the total number of pages needed, we can multiply the number of papers by the number of pages in each paper:
Total number of pages needed = Number of papers * Number of pages per paper
Total number of pages needed = 8762 * 16 = 140,192
Next, we divide the total number of pages needed by the number of pages that can be printed with one roll to find out how many rolls are required:
Number of rolls required = Total number of pages needed / Number of pages that can be printed with one roll
Number of rolls required = 140,192 / 6150 = 22.79 (rounded up to the nearest whole number)
Therefore, to print 8762 papers with 16 pages each, you would require approximately 23 rolls of newsprint.
