You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Let +n = total number of candies produced
+24+ min = +24%2F60+ hrs
+30+%2F+1+ candies / min = +%28+30%2F1+%29%2A%28+60%2F1+%29+=+1800+ candies/hr
-----------
+n+%3C+1800%2A%28+7+-+%2824%2F60%29%29+
+n+%3C++1800%2A%28420%2F60+-+24%2F60+%29+
+n+%3C+1800%2A396%2F60+
+n+%3C+1800%2A6.6+
+n+%3C+11880+
