Question

From start to finish, a machine can fill a bottle of water, seal it, label it, and pack it in 8.6 seconds. About how many bottles of water are packed in 480 seconds?

Answer 1

Answer:

56 approx (55.86) bottles

Step-by-step explanation:

Bottles of water are packed in 480 seconds = 480 ÷ 8.6 = 55.81395348 bottles

Answer 2

Answer:

55 bottles are completely packed

Step-by-step explanation:

divide 480 by 8.6

the answer will be 55.8139535

So 81.3 % of the 56th bottle will be packed but it won't be completely packed.

hence, the 56th bottle doesn't count, and 55 bottles will be packed.
