melamori03 [73]

Answer: Machine A makes popcorn at a rate of 4.25 ozs per minute (12.75oz/3min).

Machine B makes popcorn at a rate of 4.5 ozs per minute (18oz/4min).

Machine A will make 4.25oz/min * 10minutes = 42.5oz of popcorn after 10 minutes

Machine B will make 4.5oz/min * 10 minutes = 45oz of popcorn after 10 minutes

After 10 minutes there will be a total of 42.5oz (Machine A) +45oz (Machine B) = 87.5oz.

So the answer is: Yes there will be (more than) enough popcorn if both machines make popcorn for 10 minutes.

If the question is wondering how many 9oz bags they can fill: 87.5oz/9oz per bag = 9.7222 bags. The machines can fill 9, 9oz, bags with some popcorn leftover.
