Respuesta :
480 bottles because 300 divided by 5 is 60 so then you multiply 60 by 8 and you get 480!
Answer:
480 bottles
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that a bottling machine can fill 300 bottles in 5 minutes. So, rate of filling is
[tex]Rate=\dfrac{Bottles}{Time}[/tex]
[tex]Rate=\dfrac{300}{5}[/tex]
[tex]Rate=\dfrac{Bottles}{Time}=60[/tex]
It means a machine can fill 60 bottles per minute.
We need to find the number of bottles that can be filled in 8 minutes.
[tex]\text{Bottles that can be filled in 8 minutes}=8\times 60=480[/tex]
Therefore, the machine can fill 480 bottles in 8 minute.
