Answer 2

Answer:

Machine fix bottle caps in 10 mins = 120

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Machine takes one bottle cap to fix = 5 seconds

To find :

The number of bottle caps the machine will fix in 10 minutes

Concept :

So , first we have to convert the 10 mins in seconds

So , 1 min = 60s

10 min = 60×10 = 600s

After that divide it from 5 seconds.

So , the equation will like this -:

$\boxed{\sf{T=\dfrac{600s}{5s}}}$

Where,

T = Total number of bottle caps fix by machine in 10 mins

Solution :

$:\implies\sf{T=\dfrac{\cancel{600}s}{\cancel{5}s}}$

$:\implies\sf{T=120\:bottle\:caps}$

The machine fix 120 bottle caps in 10 minutes.
