How many softballs will the machine produce if A machine that makes softballs can produce 30 balls per hour. In a 5 day work week of 8 hours each day Use the five-step thinking plan to help you solve?

To determine how many softballs the machine will produce in a week, first calculate the daily production: 30 balls/hour × 8 hours/day = 240 balls/day. Next, multiply the daily production by the number of workdays in a week: 240 balls/day × 5 days/week = 1,200 balls/week. Therefore, the machine will produce a total of 1,200 softballs in a 5-day work week.
