Answer 2

Answer:

3 kg chocolates per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that factory machine produces 5/10 kilograms of chocolate every 1/6 minutes.

Chocolate = 5/10 kg

Time = 1/6 minute

We need to find the rate.

$Rate=\dfrac{\frac{5}{10}}{\frac{1}{6}}$

It can be rewritten as

$Rate=\dfrac{5}{10}\times \dfrac{6}{1}$

$Rate=3$

Therefore, the machine produce 3kg chocolate per minute.
