Question

A factory produces 272 chairs in an 8 hour shift. If the factory produces the same number of chairs each hour, how many chairs does it produce in 30 minutes?

Answer 1

Answer:

17 chairs.

Step-by-step explanation:

If they make the same amount of chairs per hour they make 34 chairs every hour because 272 divided by 8 is 34, 30 minutes is half of one hour so they make half as many chairs and 34/2 is equal to 17
