    Answer: 2,160 pieces of mail

    Explanation:

    If every 10 seconds he sorts 8 pieces, then you have to first figure out how many pieces he sorts in 1 minute.

    1 minute = 60 seconds

    Divide 10 into 60 which = 6 times that he sorts mail in a minute.

    Multiply 6 times 8 pieces = 48 pieces.

    1 minute = 48 pieces

    48 pieces times 45 minutes = 2,160 pieces of mail.

    Brandon sorts 2,160 pieces of mail in 45 minutes.
