Answer: 5 minutes

Step-by-step explanation: If 5 elves can make 5 dolls in 5 minutes then an elf can make 5 dolls in twice the time it would take 5 elves to do it which is 25 minutes.

This means it takes an elf 25/5 = 5 minutes to make one doll

One elf can make 100 dolls in 100 x 5 = 500 minutes

Then it will take 100 elves 500/100 = 5 minutes to make 100 dolls.

NOTE: This method of solving is known as the unitary method. Be careful to note that it won't take 100 elves a hundred minutes to make 100 dolls because it's a concerted effort (each of the 100 elves is making 1 doll in the same time duration (5 minutes))

5 elves*5 minutes=5 dolls
1 elf *5 minutes=1 doll

so it takes 5 minutes for an elf to make doll

100 elves*100 minutes/5=100*20=2000 dolls in 100 minutes by 100 elves

kirza4 [7]
F + V = E + 2
F = 25
V = 17

25 + 17 = E + 2
42 = E + 2
42 - 2 = E
40 = E <== there are 40 edges
