Multiply the first equation by 1.5, to get:
(1.5)(24b + 4c) = 1.5(2.5)
36b + 6c = 3.75
Subtract the second equation from this:
6b = 1/2
b = 1/12
Substituting into the first equation:
24b + 4c = 2.5
24*(1/12) + 4c = 2.5
2 + 4c = 2.5
4c = 0.5
c = 1/8
Therefore, it takes 1/12 minute to print a black-and-white page, and 1/8 minute to print a colored page.
