The problem is incomplete. You ask the rate of production but give no quantity of bats per time. Putting a variable, B bats produced in a 6-hour day:

%28B%2F6%29%28bats%2Fhour%29, and that is what you have, but only when you know a value for B.

The production rate per minute:
%28B%2F6%29%28bats%2Fhour%29%281%2Ahour%2F%2860%2Aminutes%29%29
