To find the time it will take Charla to complete the entire picture, we need to find the ratio between the area she completes in 12 hours (23) and the entire area of the picture.
Since she completed 23 of the area in 12 hours, the ratio is 23/12.
To find the total time it will take her to complete the entire picture, we need to multiply the ratio by the time it took her to complete 1 unit of area. In this case, the time it took her to complete 1 unit of area is 12 hours.
Therefore, the total time it will take Charla to complete the entire picture is (23/12) * 12 hours = 23 hours.
So the answer is 23 hours.
