Given:

Six identical machines running at a constant rate can produce a total of 270 bottles per minute.

Concept Used:

Production rate per machine per minute = Total production / Number of machines

Total production for any number of machines and time = Production rate per machine per minute × Number of machines × Time

Calculation:

Production rate per machine per minute = 270 / 6

Production rate per machine per minute = 45 bottles/minute

Total production for 10 machines in 4 minutes:

⇒ 45 bottles/minute × 10 machines × 4 minutes

⇒ 45 × 10 × 4

⇒ 1800 bottles

The correct answer is option 3.
