Answer:

40 phones 

Step-by-step explanation:

The company expects that every 2 out of 25 phones will have some form of defect. 

In percentage terms, this is:= 2 / 25 * 100%= 8%If there are 500 phones therefore,

the defected phones would still be the same percentage and the actual number would be:= 8 % * 500= 40 phones
