Answer:
17.5 hour or 17 hours 30 minutes
Explanation:
From the question, it takes
1 person = 2/3 of a minute to prepare 1 bag
1 minute = 60 seconds
2/3 of a minute =
2/3 × 60 seconds
= 40 seconds
It takes 1 person 40 seconds to make a bag
Hence,
1 bag = 40 seconds
1575 bags =
Cross Multiply
1575 × 40 seconds
= 63000 seconds
60 seconds = 1 minute
60 minutes = 1 hours
Hence, 1 hour = 60 × 60
= 3600 seconds
If 3600 seconds = 1 hour
63000 seconds = x
Cross Multiply
3600 × x = 63000
x = 63000/3600
x = 17.5 hours
Hence, it would take Ashley and her 444 friends 17.5 hours to make 1575 bag samples
