Loki · Answer 1

About 30-40 minutes because it would take 6 people to do 12 walls 60 minutes but there is less walls the that. so it would be about 30-45 minutes for 6 people to get 9 walls done.

- - 4 people paint 8 walls in 60 minutes.

- - (4 / 4) = 1 person paints (8 / 4) = 2 walls in 60 minutes.

- - 1 person paints (2 / 2) = 1 wall in (60 / 2) = 30 minutes.

- - (1 x 6) = 6 people paint (1 x 6) = 6 walls in 30 minutes.

- - 6 people paint (1.5 x 6) = 9 walls in (1.5 x 30) = 45 minutes.
