Answer 1

Answer:

5 hrs  19.57 Minutes will be taken to prepare 1575 Bags by Ashley & her 4 friends if Ashley take 2/3 minute to prepare a bag & her each friend takes 75% Longer

Step-by-step explanation:

Ashley Takes  2/3  minute to prepare a bag

=> ashley prepare bag in 1 minute = 3/2  

Her friends takes 75%  Longer to prepare a bag

time taken by her friends =  2/3  + (75/100)(2/3)

= (2/3)( 1  + 3/4)

= (2/3)(7/4)

= 7/6  Minutes

Her one friend prepare bag in 1 minute =  6/7

Bag prepared by Ashley & her 4 friend in 1 Minute

=  3/2  +  4*6/7

=  (21 + 48)/14

= 69/14  Bag

69/14   Bag prepared in 1 minute

1 Bag prepared in    14/69   minutes

1575  bags prepared  in   1575  * 14/69

= 319.57 minutes

= 5 hrs  19.57 Minutes
