Question

a landscaper had to repair 15 lawn sprinklers this week. the landscaper decides that it is worth hiring a repair person if more than 18 hours each week are spent on repairs. each sprinkler took approximately 50 minutes to fix. should the landscaper hire a repair person

Answer 1

No, he souldn't hire one becasue he only takes 12.5

Explanation:

Because if each sprinkler takes 50 minutes and there are 15 of them

50 X 15 = 750 minutes

750 / 60 = 12.5 hours

It would take 12.5 hours which is below 18
