6 shelf unit measures * 33 linear filing inches=198 then divide 1,000 estimated records to file/198 = 5.05 nearest 6

6 x 33 = 198, gives you the total number of inches per shelf. You have 1000 records at 1 inch thick, so 1000 inches needed 1000/198=5.05 6 units, because your files won't fit on 5 since it goes over

My calculations is 6/1000 = 0.006 x 100 = .06 without an additional 0 the problem would read 6x100 = 600 /100 = 6 Question was there an error in "0s"?
