Respuesta :

The total numbe rof inventories is,

[tex]\begin{gathered} T=25+14+18+12+19 \\ T=88 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Since 25% of the total inventory's available for rental, the number of tools that can be rented is,

[tex]\begin{gathered} N=\frac{25}{100}\times T \\ N=\frac{25}{100}\times88 \\ N=22 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, 22 tools can be rented.
