Ashley recently opened a store which sells only natural ingredients. She wants to advertise her products by distributing bags of samples in her neighborhood. It takes one person 2 minutes to prepare one bag.
How many hours will it take to prepare 900 bags of samples if Ashley and 5 of her friends do the work?
YOU LIED WTF
Its alright it is 5 hours.
5 3/5
you are terrible at explaining things
To calculate the total time it will take to prepare the bags, we need to determine the total number of bags that can be prepared in one minute by Ashley and her friends.
Ashley and 5 of her friends will be preparing the bags together. So, the total number of people working on the task is 6.
It takes one person 2 minutes to prepare one bag. Therefore, one person can prepare 1/2 = 0.5 bags per minute.
To find out how many bags 6 people can prepare in one minute, we need to multiply the bags per minute by the number of people:
0.5 bags/minute x 6 people = 3 bags/minute.
Now that we know they can prepare 3 bags in one minute, we can calculate how many bags they can prepare in one hour:
3 bags/minute x 60 minutes = 180 bags/hour.
Finally, to determine how many hours it will take to prepare 900 bags, divide the total number of bags by the bags per hour:
900 bags รท 180 bags/hour = 5 hours.
It will take Ashley and her 5 friends a total of 5 hours to prepare 900 bags of samples.
