Answer:

It will take 56 hours to make 8 airplanes

Explanation:

Given that,

Carson builds 3 airplanes in 1 3/4 hours i.e. 7/3 hours.

We need to find the time it would take him to make 8 airplanes.

We know that,

3 airplanes = 7/3 hours.

1 airplane = (7/3)×3 hours

= 7 hours

To make 8 airplanes, the required time will be :

T = 8×7

= 56 hours

Hence, it will take 56 hours to make 8 airplanes.
