Given : Machine fills 150 bottles of water every 8 minutes


\mathsf{\implies Machine\;fills\;1\;bottle\;of\;water\;in\;\left((8)/(150)\right)\;minutes}


\mathsf{\implies Machine\;fills\;(675 * 1)\;bottles\;of\;water\;in\;\left(675 * (8)/(150)\right)\;minutes}


\mathsf{\implies Machine\;fills\;675\;bottles\;of\;water\;in\;\left(675 * (4)/(75)\right)\;minutes}


\mathsf{\implies Machine\;fills\;675\;bottles\;of\;water\;in\;\left(135 * (4)/(15)\right)\;minutes}


\mathsf{\implies Machine\;fills\;675\;bottles\;of\;water\;in\;\left(9 * 4}\right)\;minutes}


\mathsf{\implies Machine\;fills\;675\;bottles\;of\;water\;in\;\boxed{\mathsf{36}}\;minutes}

Answer:

36 minutes

Explanation:

In order to find how many minutes it takes to fill 675 bottles, we need to find how many bottles the machine produces in one minute.

To do so, we can divide 150 by 8, which would give us the total amount of bottles produced in one minute.

150/8 = 18.75

So, 18.75 bottles are produced in one minute

To find the total number of minutes it takes to fill 675 bottles, we can divide 675 by the number of bottles produced in one minute, which is 18.75

675/18.75 = 36

Therefore, it takes the machine 36 minutes to fill 675 bottles.
