Question

A factory can fill 225 bottles of orange juice each hour. Each bottle of orange juice contains 24 fluid ounces. Each bottle of juice sells for $5.50. If all the bottles made in a 12-hour shift sell, how much money will be made?

Answer 1

$14,850

Explanation:

If the factory can sell 225 bottles each hour, then for a 12 hour shift, 225 * 12 = 2,700 bottles sold. 5.50 * 2,700 = 14,850, so the factory makes $14,850.
