Answer:2400 pieces of candy in six hours

Explanation:

Okay so first you’ll have to find out how much candy was in those 80 boxes Which is 800 in all together Now we will put in fraction form 800/2 simplify this and you’ll get 400/1 meaning 400 pieces in an hour finally we will multiply 400x6=2400/6

Answer: 2400 pieces of candy

Explanation:

If there are 10 pieces in every box and 80 boxes are made every 2 hours than 800 pieces are made every 2 hours (which is 400 every hour, 200 every 30 minutes, and 100 every 15 minutes ) so you multiply 800 by 3 and get 2400 pieces every 6 hours.
