Question

One machine can seal 360 packages per hour, and an older machine can seal 140 packages per hour. How many MINUTES will the two machines working together take to seal a total of 700 packages?​

Answer 1

Answer:

84 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

360 per hour = 6 per min

140 per hour = 2 1/3 per min

Both together do 8 1/3 per min.

In 3 minutes, both machines together do 25 packages.

700/25 = 28.

In 3*28 minutes, which is 84 minutes, both machines together seal 700 packages.

Thanks!
