Answer 2

1015 widgets

Explanation:

First investigate how many widgets can machine A produce in 1 hour:

If it produces 435 in 3 hours, then it will produce one third of that in one hour:

In ONE (1) hour
`(435)/(3) = 145` widgets

Therefore in seven (7) hours it will produce seven times the amount it does in one hour, that is:

`145 * 7 = 1015` widgets
