Answer:

50,000 pounds of chicken meat

Explanation:

If 10,000 packages of chicken sausages were produced, the estimated amount of chicken meat and machine hours would equal:

  • chicken meat = 10,000 packages times 5 pounds per package = 50,000 pounds of chicken meat
  • machine hours = 10,000 packages times 2 hours per package = 20,000 machine hours
