When the belt is moving at a high speed, 350 pills can be coated per hour. How many minutes would it take to coat all the pills in this batch at a high speed?

Respuesta :

Answer:

6 pills are coated in one minute time.

Explanation:

There are 350 pills can be coated in 60 minutes due to high speed of belt movement which means that 6 pills are coated in one minute time period so if there are 60 pills so the belt takes 10 minutes to complete the coating of the pills. If there are 200 pills to be coated then we used the equation i.e.

6 pills -------- 1 minute

200 -------- x

By cross multiplication we get,

6x = 200 x 1

x = 200 / 6

x = 33.3 minutes

This means that in 33 minutes the belt can coated 200 pills.
