Question

a machine can stamp 36 bottle caps in 10 seconds .copy and completevrhe table . at this rate how many bottle caps can the machine stamp i 5 minutes?

Answer 1

I think it would be 1,080, because you multiply 60 seconds by 5, then divide by ten, and multiply be 36 to get the answer

Answer 2

First, you need to figure out how many 10 seconds are in 5 minutes. 10 seconds occur 30 times in 5 minutes. We got this because in 1 minute, 10 seconds occur 6 times. So 6*5 minutes= 30. So now we have to multiple 30 by 36. The answer is 1,080 bottle caps in 5 minutes. I hope this helps.
