Question 797965
Suppose you are helping to prepare a large meal. You can peel 2 carrots per minute. You need 60 peeled carrots. How long will it  take you to finish if you have already peeled 18 carrots?
-------------------
Carrots to be peeled:: 60-18 = 48
Time to peel 48 carrots: 48/2 = 24 minutes
