Hey!
Hope this Helps...

We know these 2 things...
(1) We are assuming Jim needs 300 juice boxes every hour = x amount of gallons...
(2) there are 16 cups in a gallon...
Now that we know those 2 things, lets get to work...
300 / 60 = 5 juice boxes a minute
0.8 * 5 = 4 cups of juice every minute
4 * 60 = 240 cups of juice every hour
240 / 16 = 15 gallons of juice every hour
Jim needs 15 gallons of juice made every hour...
Answer:
Jim's factory needs 15 gallons of juice per hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
At Jim's juice box factory, his machine can fill juice boxes per hour = 300
Each juice box holds juice = 0.8 cups
per hour the machine can fill juices in 300 boxes = 300 × 0.8 = 240 cups
16 cups = 1 gallon
so Jim's factory need juice per hour = 240 ÷ 16 = 15 gallons
Jim's factory needs 15 gallons of juice per hour.
