A. 30

AkshdeepS · Answer

We know , W = R * T

Rate of Machine A = 15 golf clubs per hour

Time of Machine A = 6 hours

Here , W = 15 * 6 = 90 golf clubs

Work is equal for both the Machines, So

Time for Machine A = 1.5 hours

90 = Rate of Machine B * 1.5

Rate of Machine B = 90*10/15

60 (C)

rahulsinha2103 · Answer

Machine A fills production lot in 6 hours and machine B fills in 1.5 hours. So, machine B is 6/1.5 = 4 times faster than machine A. 
So, machine B will produce 15*4 = 60 golf clubs per hour. 
Option C is the answer.
