To find out how many bottles the machine can fill in 8 hours, we first need to determine the machine's fill rate per hour.
To find the fill rate per hour, we divide the total number of bottles filled (5,400) by the number of hours it took to fill them (3).
Fill rate per hour = 5,400 bottles / 3 hours
Fill rate per hour = 1,800 bottles/hour
Next, we can multiply the fill rate per hour by the number of hours the machine will be running (8).
Number of bottles filled in 8 hours = Fill rate per hour * 8 hours
Number of bottles filled in 8 hours = 1,800 bottles/hour * 8 hours
Number of bottles filled in 8 hours = 14,400 bottles
Therefore, the machine can fill 14,400 bottles in 8 hours.
A machine can fill 5,400 bottles in 3 hours. how many can it fill in 8 hours?
