there are 60 minutes in 1 hr.

every 10 minutes the factory makes 15 bears.

so 10+10+10+10+10+10 is 1 hr, and is really 15+15+15+15+15+15 bears, namely 90 per hour.

every day, the factory does that for 8 hours straight, so namely they make 90 * 8 teddy bears, or 720 per day.

let's make a table of bears per day

1 day............................... 720(1)

2 days............................ 720(2)

3 days............................ 720(3)

4 days............................ 720(4)

x days............................ 720(x)

so the amount of bears they make say "A" is per day is A = 720x.

what would be the fewest days to make 5000?

well, whatever 720x is, it has to be either 5000 exactly OR more, not less, then

5000 ⩽ 720x.

and dividing both sides by 720 we get about 6.94 ⩽ x.

so we can conclude that whole days, it'll be 7, since 6.94 is about 7 days, but rounded up to whole days it'll be 7 days.
