Answer:

70 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Mary can type the number of letters in 20 minutes = 6

Maggie can type the number of letters in 20 minutes = 5

Su Ying can type the number of letters in 20 minutes = 2

Working together they can type the number of letters in 20 minutes

= 6 + 5 + 2

= 13 letters

Working together they can type the number of letters in 1 minute = \frac{13}{20}

To type 45 letters time taken by them = \frac{45}{\frac{13}{20} }

                                                               = 45\times \frac{20}{13}

                                                               = \frac{900}{13}

                                                               = 69.230 ≈ 70 minutes

It will take them 70 minutes to type 45 letters.

dlinn [17]
Let the total amount of pages be t
t=30+1/8t+2/8t
now simplify
t=30+3/8t
5/8t=30
divide 30 by 5
1/8=6
now you know 1/8 of the book is 6 pages which means the whole book has 48 pages.
