Respuesta :

Answer:

950 mouse traps are made in a day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Mouse traps produced in 30 minutes =  50

Total working hour in one day = 10 hours

Lunch break time  = 30 minutes

To find:

Number of mouse traps are made in a day = ?

Solution:

Total number of working hours =10 hours

We know that 1 hours = 60 minutes

so 10 hours  = 60 x 10 = 600 minutes

It is said that there is 30 minutes break

So total working hour is 600-30 = 570

In 570 minutes we have  = [tex]\frac{570}{30}[/tex] =19 half hours

Now the total mouse traps produced is  19 half hours is

19 x 50 = 950
