Question

A factory can make 300 water bottles in 20 minutes. How many bottles can that factory make in 50 minutes?

• A. 150 bottles
• B. 750 bottles
• C. 250 bottles
• D. 600 bottles

Answer 1

The correct option is B 750 bottles

Given,

In 20 min the factory can make 300 water bottles.

⇒ 20 min = 300

$\Rightarrow \text{1 min}=\frac{300}{20}=15$

⇒ 50 min = ?

$\Rightarrow \frac{20}{300}=\frac{50}{?}$

$\Rightarrow ?=\frac{300\times 50}{20}$

$\Rightarrow ?=750$

In 50 minutes, the factory will make 750 water bottles.
