An industrial factory makes 4 2/3 yards of chain

every minute.the cost of each yardvof chain is birr 6.25 . What is the total cost for all chain produced in 10 minutes?

Step-by-step explanation: The total cost for all chains produced in 10 minutes will be $303.14.

What is the rate?

The rate is the ratio of the amount of something to the unit. For example - If the speed of the car is 20 km/h it means the car travels 20 km in one hour.

An industrial factory makes 4 ³/₅ yards of chain every minute. Then the rate is given as,

Rate = 4 ³/₅

Rate = 4 + 3/5

Rate = 4 + 0.60

Rate = 4.60 yards per minute

The cost of each yard is $6.59. Then the cost per minute is given as,

⇒ $6.59 x 4.60

⇒ $30.314 per minute

Then the total cost for all chains produced in 10 minutes will be given as,

⇒ $30.314 x 10

⇒ $303.14
