Question

Jess recently started a business producing cosmetic products made from natural ingredients. She wants to advertise her products by distributing bags of samples in her neighborhood. She calculated that it takes a person 2 minutes to prepare one bag. Howmany hours will it take to prepare 1200 bags of samples if Jess and 7 of her friends work simultaneously?

Answer 1

According to question

Time taken by 1 person to prepare one bag = 2 min

Also,
Total people working = jess  + 7 freinds
                                  = 8 people

Total Number of bags to be prepared = 1200 Bags
Thus
Bags to be prepared by each person = 1200 / 8
                                                           = 150 bags
Time taken by 1 person to prepare 150 bags = 150 * 2
                                                                        = 300 min
                                                                         = 5 hr
Thus total bags will get prepared in 5 hours

Answer 2
