Answer:

1.8 minutes or 108 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The question tells us that the larger belt moves 300 lbs in 2 mins. And this is equal to 150 lb per minute

The question also tells us that a smaller belt moves the same quantity of 300 lbs in 18 mins. And this is equal to an average of 16.667 lb per min.

Both belts will move at a rate of 166.667 lb per min.

So it will take them 300 / 166.667 = 1.8 min or 108 s.

Therefore, the answer is 1.8 min

Need help with what the answer to this question is
levacccp [35]
The answer is C
C has units of Markers / Markers on the left and Money over an unknown which represents money.

None of the others (D) is incorrect, because we've already chosen C.

A is not because.you have the wrong amount of money divided by the larger number of makers. 

B does not work because the right is markers divided by money. The left had side will have money divided by markers. It won't work. The safest way to  these questions up is to keep the knows on the left and put the unknown on the left with the number it is associated with.
Let's see why the others don't work.
