Tame Valley is a company that makes yoghurt.
A machine fills trays of 20 pots with yoghurt.
In one hour, the machine fills a total of 15 000 pots.
Work out how many seconds the machine takes to fill each tray of 20 pots.
To find out how many seconds the machine takes to fill each tray of 20 pots, we need to divide the total number of pots filled in one hour by the number of trays filled in one hour.
There are 15,000 pots filled in one hour.
Each tray contains 20 pots.
Therefore, the number of trays filled in one hour is:
15,000 pots / 20 pots per tray = 750 trays
Since there are 60 minutes in an hour and 60 seconds in a minute, we can calculate how many seconds it takes to fill each tray:
60 minutes per hour * 60 seconds per minute = 3,600 seconds per hour
So, the machine takes 3,600 seconds to fill each tray of 20 pots.
