Can someone please help me solve this equation?

A bottling plant fills 2,400 bottles every two hours. The lead time is 40 minutes and a container accommodates 120 bottles. The safety stock is 10 percent of expected demand. How many kanban cards are needed? The formula in the book is: k = DL(1 + S)/Ck = Number of kanban card sets D = Average number of units demanded over some time periodL = Lead time to replenish an order (expressed in the same units as demand)S = Safety stock expressed as a percentage of demand during the lead timeC = Container sizeThank You
