    Rory, the owner of Rory's Cookie Jar. Has to bake 12 large pans of chocolate chip cookies before he leaves for the day. He can bake two pans of cookies at a time. Rory knows that for perfect cookies each pan must bake for 15 minutes -no more. no less. If he starts baking at 5:45 p.m., what is the earliest he can close up shop?

    A) 7:30 pm          

    B)          7:15 pm  

    C) 7:45 pm          

    D)          7:20 pm

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

        Time taken by each pan to bake= 15 minutes. Number of pans cooked at a time = 2 Total number of pans = 12 Thus, Rory will have to take 6 rounds of baking his cookies if 2 pans are cooked simultaneously. And 6 pans X 15 minutes will take 1 hour 15 minutes. He starts at 5:45 pm so after 1 hour 15 minutes i.e at 7:15 he can close his shop after making all the cookies.
