    They do need to produce 388,000 ‘good’ units.

    However for every 100 units they produce, 20% will be rejected and so they only end up with 80 ‘good’ units.
    Or to put it the other way round, for every 80 good units, they will actually produce and inspect 100 units.

    So to end up with 388,000 good units they need to actually produce and inspect 100/80 x 388,000 units.
