Making 10 chairs would take Marjorie and Blaine 21 hours and 40 minutes.

How long does it take to make 10 chairs?

The total time it takes Marjorie and Blaine to perform their respective tasks in building a chair is multiplied by 10 chairs, respectively.  This time is known as their speed.

The resulting figures are summed to get the total time.

Data and Calculations:

The total time it takes Marjorie to build a chair is 15 hours (1.5 hours x 10)

The total time it takes Baline to sew cushions per chair is 400 minutes (40 x 10) or 6 hours and 40 minutes.

Therefore, the total time to build 10 chairs is 21 hours, 40 minutes (15 hours + 6 hours and 40 minutes).

Thus, making 10 chairs would take Marjorie and Blaine 21 hours and 40 minutes.
