Pallet, Case & Each Arithmetic with Weight & Cube
Riley is loading 240 cases of soda (12"×10"×8") onto a 48"×40" pallet, max 5 ft tall.

Cases per layer
(48 × 40) / (12 × 10) = 16 cases per layer.
- 2
Layers within height
60" max ÷ 8" tall = 7 layers.
- 3
Total per pallet
16 × 7 = 112 cases per pallet.

Pallets needed
240 / 112 = 2.14 → 3 pallets (always round up — partial pallet still counts).
Customer orders 3 pallets + 7 cases of SKU-7841 (24 ea/case, 40 cases/pallet, 2 lb/unit). Compute total eaches, pallet weight (cargo + 50 lb pallet), and whether the order rounds UP to the next full case when the customer asks for 5,000 eaches. Three-tier 'each → case → pallet' arithmetic is the entire WMS pick math.
