To find out how long Lily will take to paint 3 vases, we need to first determine how long it takes Merin to paint a vase.

We are given that Merin takes 7/8 of an hour to paint a vase.

To find out how long it takes Lily to paint a vase, we can multiply the time it takes Merin by the fraction of time Lily takes compared to Merin.

Lily takes 2/3 of the time Merin takes.

So, we can calculate Lily's time to paint a vase by multiplying Merin's time (7/8) by Lily's fraction of time (2/3).

(7/8) * (2/3) = (14/24) = 7/12

Therefore, it takes Lily 7/12 of an hour to paint a vase.

Now, we need to calculate how long it will take Lily to paint 3 vases.

If Lily takes 7/12 of an hour to paint one vase, then to find out how long it will take her to paint 3 vases, we need to multiply her time by 3.

(7/12) * 3 = (21/12) = 1 3/12 = 1 1/4

Therefore, Lily will take 1 hour and 15 minutes to paint 3 vases.
