To determine how many cases of 8 dram vials should be ordered to last for two weeks, we need to start by calculating the total number of vials consumed in that timeframe. If the pharmacy uses an average of 120 vials per day, over two weeks (which consists of 14 days) the total consumption would be:

120 vials/day × 14 days = 1680 vials.

Next, since each case contains 8 vials, we can establish how many cases are needed by dividing the total vials required by the number of vials in each case:

1680 vials / 8 vials per case = 210 cases.

This calculation gives us the total number of cases needed to meet the pharmacy's demand for the two-week period. Therefore, the answer is accurately reflected as 210 cases rather than any of the simplified numbers listed in your choices.

Given the flow of the calculations, it’s important to ensure that the selector or reader of the question understands the relationship between daily usage, the duration being measured (two weeks), and the vials per case to arrive at the correct ordering quantity. This systematic approach showcases the importance of arithmetic operations for inventory needs in a pharmacy setting.
