Answer 1

To solve this problem using a unit rate, we can find out how many school-supply kits are put together in 1 minute and then multiply that by 30.

40 school-supply kits / 8 minutes = 5 school-supply kits/minute

5 school-supply kits/minute * 30 minutes = 150 school-supply kits

Therefore, the volunteers could put together 150 school-supply kits in 30 minutes.
