Solution Steps

To determine the number of wraps at the end of the day on Friday, we need to:

  1. Calculate the total number of wraps used from Monday to Friday.
  2. Subtract the total wraps used from the initial number of wraps.
  3. Add the new shipment of wraps arriving on Thursday.
Step 1: Calculate Total Wraps Used from Monday to Friday

The cafeteria uses 98 wraps each day. Over 5 days (Monday to Friday), the total wraps used is: \[ \text{Total wraps used} = 98 \times 5 = 490 \]

Step 2: Subtract Total Wraps Used from Initial Wraps

The initial number of wraps is 599. After using 490 wraps, the remaining wraps are: \[ \text{Remaining wraps} = 599 - 490 = 109 \]

Step 3: Add New Shipment of Wraps

A new shipment of 538 wraps arrives on Thursday. Adding this to the remaining wraps: \[ \text{Wraps at the end of Friday} = 109 + 538 = 647 \]

Final Answer

\(\boxed{647}\)
