Sue works in a factory and every 30 minutes, a machine she oversees produces 30 cans of soda. How many cans of soda can one machine produce in 8 hours?
Since there are 2 sets of 30 minutes in an hour, then in 8 hours there are 8 x 2 = <<8*2=16>>16 sets of 30 minutes.
Hence, a machine that Sue oversees can produce 30 cans x 16 = <<30*16=480>>480 cans of soda in 8 hours.
