Answer:

120 minutes or 2 hours

Explanation:

Garney picks 72 apples every 6 minutes therefore,

We should divide 72 by 6 to find how many apples she picks per one minute!

72/6= 12

Garney picks 12 apples every 1 minute.

We can now divide 1440 by 12 to find out what we should multiply 12 by!

1440/12= 120

We should now multiply 120*1

= 120

GARNEY PICKS 1440 APPLES IN 120 MINUTES/ 2 HOURS!'

HOPE THIS HELPS, HAVE A GOOD DAY AND GOODLUCK! :D
