For a Thanksgiving food drive, volunteers packed 50 boxes of food in 20 minutes. How many boxes did they pack per minute?(1 point)

To find out how many boxes were packed per minute, you can divide the total number of boxes by the total time in minutes.

Number of boxes = 50
Time in minutes = 20

Boxes packed per minute = Total boxes / Total time
Boxes packed per minute = 50 boxes / 20 minutes = 2.5 boxes/minute

Therefore, the correct response is:

2.5 boxes/minute
