Answer: 11,544 pieces of candy are made per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

  • <em>Gallons of corn syrup used: 8 </em>
  • <em>Pieces of candy produced: 1,776 </em>
  • <em>gallons of corn syrup per hour: 52 </em>

If we apply proportions:

8 /1,776 = 52/x

Where x is the pieces of candy made per hour.

Solving

x = 52x1, 776 /8

x = 11,544

11,544 pieces of candy are made per hour.
