Problema Solution

If a machineis producing 200 bags per minute, how long will it take to produce 40,000 bags?

Answer provided by our tutors

the rate of the machine is:


v = 200 bags per min


d = 40,000 bags


t = the time


since v = d/t we have:


t = d/v


t = 40,000/200


t = 200 min


t = 200/60 hr


t = 3 hr 20 min


the machine needs 3 hours and 20 minutes to produce 40,000 bags.
