Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To manufacture a bicycle, we need one frame and two wheels, thus we can assemble `(70/2 = 35)` 35 bicycles with 70 wheels. Now since each bicycle requires 4 reflectors, we need a total of `(35 * 4 = 140)` 140 reflectors to assemble 35 bicycles. But we only have 160 reflectors, which means we can manufacture only `(160 / 4 = 40)` 40 bicycles (using 160 reflectors and 40 frames).
