    The answer is 50.99days

    Explanation:

    We need to find net sales first because we need it to calculate our number of receivable days.

    Asset turnover rate = Net sales/total asset

    Asset turnover = 1.45

    Total asset = $211,800

    Net sales = y

    1.45=y/$211,800

    y = 1.45 x $211,800

    y (net sales) = $307,110

    Therefore, Number of receivable days = account receivables/sales (revenue)

    =42,900/307,110 x365days

    =50.99 days
