A machine produces 440 bolts in 48 minutes. At the same rate, how many bolts would be produced in 30 minutes?

Respuesta :

The units you want is [tex] \frac{bolts}{min} [/tex], so you set up the following equation:
[tex] \frac{440\ bolts}{48\ mins} = \frac{x}{30\ mins} \\ 440*30=48*x\\ 13200=48x\\ x=\frac{13200}{48}=275 \frac{bolts}{min}[/tex]
