Jacob takes 52 minutes to 4 caricatures:
52 minutes/4 caricatures=13 minutes/caricature

84 caricatures x 13 minutes/caricature=1092 minutes
.
1092 minutes x (1 hour/60 minutes)=18.2 hours
.

Hi there,
If Jacob can draw 4 caricatures in 52mins
He can draw 1 caricatures in 52/4 mins
1 caricature in 13 mins
So, he can draw 84 caricatures in
84 x 13 mins
= 18hours 12mins
Hope this helps:-)
