Answer:

Explanation:

Estimated Time:

Since 4 potatoes in 10 mins

4*4=16 potatoes

10*4=40 mins

He can peel 14 potatoes in about little less than 40 mins about 30 something!

Real Sum:

4 potatoes*3=

12 potatoes

10*3= 30 mins

Then for 2 more potatoes,

4/2=2 potatoes.

10/2=5mins

So:14 potatoes in 35 mins!
