Answer 1

The correct answer is 150 school-supply kits.

To solve this problem using a unit rate, we can divide the number of school-supply kits by the number of minutes it took to assemble them.

40 kits / 8 minutes = 5 kits/minute

Then, we can multiply the unit rate by the number of minutes we want to find the number of kits for.

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

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