Answer 1

150 school-supply kits

First, find the unit rate by dividing the number of school-supply kits by the time taken:

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

Then, multiply the unit rate by the time in minutes:

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

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