Question

In 5 ​minutes, a conveyor belt moves 300 pounds of recyclable aluminum from the delivery truck to a storage area. A smaller belt moves the same quantity of cans the same distance in 6 minutes. If both belts are​ used, find how long it takes to move the cans to the storage area.

Answer 1

It tells you in the question, 5 min for the larger conveyor belt and 6 for the smaller one, unless you are saying that it divides the weight equally then it would be half the time for both
