Answer:

1 hr and 5 minutes

Explanation:

here's why... because 4 goes into 26 6 times with a remainder of 2 and there is 5 mins for every 2 tables and 6 times 10 is 60 which equals a hour and that will be a hour and 5 mins

Answer: 65 minutes

Step-by-step explanation: 26 / 4 = 6.5

6.5 tables per 10 minutes so 6.5 x 10 = 65 min
