it takes dean 15 minutes to make a halfway decent swan. And it takes ambrose 20. working together how many minutes would it take to make 7 swans
To solve this problem, we need to find the combined time it takes for Dean and Ambrose to make one swan and then multiply that by 7 to find the total time it would take to make 7 swans.
Dean takes 15 minutes to make a swan, and Ambrose takes 20 minutes. To find the combined time, we add their individual times:
Dean's time + Ambrose's time = 15 minutes + 20 minutes = 35 minutes
So, together, it takes Dean and Ambrose 35 minutes to make one swan.
To find how long it would take to make 7 swans, we multiply the time for one swan by 7:
35 minutes * 7 = 245 minutes
Therefore, it would take Dean and Ambrose 245 minutes to make 7 swans if they work together.
