Running at the same constant rate, 6 identical machines can produce a total of 270 bottles per minute. At this rate, how many bottles could 10 such machines produce in 4 minutes?
Answer: Option
Explanation:
Let the required number of bottles be x.
More machines, More bottles (Direct Proportion)
More minutes, More bottles (Direct Proportion)
| Machines | 6 | : | 10 |  |
:: 270 : x |
| Time (in minutes) | 1 | : | 4 |
6 x 1 x x = 10 x 4 x 270
 x = |
(10 x 4 x 270) |
| (6) |
x = 1800.

6*1*270 = 10*4*x.
6*270 = 40*x.
x = 40/6*270.
x = 1800.
6*270 = 40*x.
x = 40/6*270.
x = 1800.

M1*H1/W1 = M2*H2/W2
6*1/270 = 10*4/W2
W2= 1800
6*1/270 = 10*4/W2
W2= 1800
