Answer:

Total number of coffee pot = 16 pots

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Time taken for drying all coffee pot = 10 minutes

Total time taken for cleaning and drying coffee pot = 82 minutes

Time taken for clean a coffer pot = 4 ½ minutes = 4.5 minutes

Find:

Total number of coffee pot

Computation:

Total time taken for cleaning = Total time taken for cleaning and drying coffee pot - Time taken for drying all coffee pot

Total time taken for cleaning = 82 - 10

Total time taken for cleaning = 72 minutes

Total number of coffee pot = Total time taken for cleaning / Time taken for clean a coffer pot

Total number of coffee pot = 72 / 4.5

Total number of coffee pot = 16 pots
