If a production line produces 50 mouse traps every 30 minutes over the course of a 10 hour work day with a half-hour break for lunch, how many mouse traps are made in a day?

Respuesta :

the awnser is 1000 because 60 miutes in an hour, 50 mouse traps every half hour so 100 mouse traps an hour multiply that by 10 and you get 1000, i think.
10 hours is equal to 600 minutes. 30 minutes goes into 600 minutes 20 times, but it would be 19 because there is a 30 minute lunch break.

600/30=20
20-1=19

Since there are 50 mouse traps every 30 minutes, we would multiply 50 by 19(the amount of half hours).


50*19=950

So, there are 950 mouse traps in 1 day.
