    106

    Step-by-step explanation:

    For every 150 light bulbs, 8 are defective

    The defective rate can be written as;

    8/150

    = 4/75

    Now, to find the number of defective light bulbs in a lot of 2000, we simply multiply the defective rate by this amount

    This gives;

    4/75 * 2000

    = 106.6

    This is approximately 106 light bulbs because a light bulb is either defective or not so, we need to have a whole number.
