1. A restaurant in Sri Lanka serves two popular desserts: watalappan and dodol.

Watalappan needs to be cooked for 20 minutes and dodol needs to be cooked for
25 minutes. If the restaurant wants to cook both desserts at the same time, what is
the least amount of time they need to cook to ensure both desserts are ready
together???

Answer:

25 minutes

Explanation:

Watalappan takes 20 minutes

Dodol takes 25

By the time Dodol is finished, Watalappan would also be finished, so the least amount of time for both deserts to be finished would be 25 minutes.

Hope this helps!
