    An elevator can safely lift at most 4400 1bs. A concrete block has an average weight of 41 lbs. What is the maximum number of concrete blocks that the elevator can lift?

    Total blocks liftable = Lift Max / Weight per block
    Total blocks liftable = 4400 / 41
    Total blocks liftable = 107.31

    We round down to whole blocks and we get 107
