Answer:
It takes 70 minutes for 9 team members (painting 60 sq ft per minute) to paint a 4200 sq ft wall.
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the situation the calculation is shown below:-
= [tex]\frac{4800}{20}[/tex]
= 240 sq ft each member of the team in 36 minutes
= [tex]\frac{240}{36}[/tex]
= 6.67 sq ft each member of the team within 1 minute
[tex]= 6.67\times 9[/tex]
= 60 sq ft for every 9 team members in one minute
= [tex]\frac{4200}{60}[/tex]
= 70 minutes (or 1 hour and 10 minutes)
Hence, the 70 minutes is taken for 9 team members
