It takes a machine 15 minutes to put
labels on 300 cans of soup. at this rate,
how many minutes will it take the
machine to put labels on 500 cans of
soup?

i need asap explain also if i need to times or divide with these i get confused

25

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate rate, divide the number of cans by the time to get "Cans per minute".

300/15min = 20/min

Let m represent minutes and c for cans.

We write an equation for the problem:

c = 20m

We want to know the time for 500 cans, so substitute 500 for c.

500 = 20m

Isolate m and solve:

m = 500/20

m = 25

It will take 25 minutes to put 500 labels.

the answer is d. 75%
