When A conveyor belt carries filled bottles of milk to be packed. The bottles are placed five feet apart on the belt. If the belt is moving at a rate of two feet per second how many bottles will be pa?

To determine how many bottles will pass a given point on the conveyor belt, we can calculate the time it takes for one bottle to pass. Since the bottles are placed five feet apart and the belt moves at two feet per second, it takes 2.5 seconds for each bottle to reach the same point. In that time, the belt will have moved 5 feet, allowing one bottle to pass. Therefore, one bottle will pass every 2.5 seconds, resulting in 24 bottles passing in one minute.
