Question

A machine in a soft drink factory fills 480 bottles in six hours. How many bottles will it fill in 2 days?

• A. 4800
• B. 960
• C. 3840
• D. 2840

Answer 1

The correct option is C

3840

Given, the number of bottles can be filled by the machine in 6 hours = 480

Hence number of bottles it can fill in 1 hour = $\frac{480}{6}$= 80 bottles
Hence the number of bottles that can be filled in 2 days = 80 $\times$ 2 $\times$ 24 ($\because$ Number of hours in a day = 24)
= 3840 bottles
