A machine fills 150 cans of paint every 8 minutes. How many minutes does it take this machine to fill 675 cans? Let's answer step by step:
To know how many groups of 150 cans there are in 675 cans, we calculate 675 ÷ 150 = 4.5. For each of these groups, 8 minutes are needed, so it takes 8 × 4.5 = 36 minutes. The answer: 36.
