Answer:

3 hours 15 minutes

Explanation:

Simon is ironing shirts it takes him 15 minutes to iron 2 shirts.

2 shirts = 15 minutes

1 shirt = (15/2) minutes

For 26 shirts,


26\ shirts = 26* (15)/(2)\ min\\\\=195\ minutes

or

Time = 3 hours 15 minutes

Hence, it will take 3 hours 15 minutes to iron 26 shirts.
