A machine can fill 5400 bottles in three hours. How many dollars can it fill in eight hours?

1 answer

To calculate the bottles filled in 8 hours, we will use the equation:

Bottles filled = Bottles filled per hour * Number of hours

Bottles filled in 8 hours = 5400 bottles/hour * 8 hours = <<5400*8=43200>>43200 bottles.

Since the machine can fill one bottle per dollar, the machine can fill 43200 dollars in 8 hours. Answer: \boxed{43200}.
