Answer:

100 Minutes.

Step-by-step explain:

25 divided by 3 = 8.33333333333, So, 8.3 minutes to paint one section at a time. So, 8.3 x 12 = 99.6. So, 99.6 rounded since the last number is higher than 5 it would go to the next number. So, rounded its 100 minutes. 100 minutes for Angela to paint 12 sections.
