Answer:

53 pushes

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Volume of soap = 474 mL

Volume per push = 8mL

Mimimum volume required = 50mL

The equation which represents the number of push, x that can be made :

Total volume = minimum volume + (volume per push * number of pushes)

Total volume = 50 + (8 * x)

474 ≤ 50 + 8x

474 - 50 ≤ 8x

424 ≤ 8x

53 ≤ x

The number of pushes that can be made = 53
