The new software will make Christopher make a page in 1.2 hours. However, he also needs to take into account that he needs 15 hours to learn the software.
If x is the number of pages, the time needed to create x pages using software 1 is equals to the time needed to create x pages using software 2 if:
15+1.2x = 2.4x
15 = 1.2x
x=12.5 pages
Therefore, for Christopher to save time, he needs to create at least 13 pages.
