Dalia Rosales · Answer 1

she can skip 15 days and she will take 45 days for this work

Step-by-step explanation:

total blankets to crochet = 3

speed of work per day = 1/15 blanket per day

total time in days she have = 60 days

No of days she had=60

number of days required to complete the work = ?

so 1/15 blanket she made = 1 day

1 blanket she made = 1 x 1/15

3 blanket she made = 1 x 1/15 x 3 = 15 x 3 = 45 days

So she will do it 45 days.

days can be skipped = 60-45=15 days
