Respuesta :

Answer: 40 suitcases

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, out of 36 suitcases, 8 suitcases are screened.

⇒  In the group of 36 suitcases only 8 suitcase are screened.

Since the total number of group of 36 suitcases in 180 suitcases = [tex]\frac{180}{36} = 5 [/tex]

Therefore, the total group of 36 suitcases in 180 suitcases = 5

In one 36 group of suitcases number of suitcases screened = 8

⇒ In five 36 group of suitcases number of suitcase screened = 5 × 8 = 40

Therefore, out of 180 suitcases 40 suitcases will screened.
