As the no. of decreases no. of bottles will also decrease so, it is direct proportion

Here is your answer

840 x 5= 4200

4200 /6 = 700

so, machine will fill 700 bottles in 5 hours

Answer 2

In six hour no. of bottle fills = 840

$1 \: hour \: no. \: of \: bottles \: fills = \frac{840}{6} = 140$

In 5 hour no. of bottles fills = 140 × 5 =b700...
