Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To find out how many cartons of milk the machine can fill per hour, we need to multiply the number of cartons it can fill in 0.5 hour by 2 (since there are 2 halves in an hour).

3,169 cartons x 2 = 6,338 cartons

Therefore, the machine can fill 6,338 cartons of milk per hour, which is option B. To find out how many cartons of milk can the machine fill per hour, we need to use the formula: 
number of cartons per hour = (number of cartons in a given time) / (that time in hours).
So, we can solve for the answer using the given information as:
number of cartons per hour = 3169 / 0.5 = 6,338 cartons.
Therefore, the machine can fill 6,338 cartons of milk per hour. Option B is the best choice.
