Huh, Nancy and Sue make 11 bags per hour, not 12

anyway if they working together make 24 bags/hr

then 149 bags / 24 bags/hr = 6.2 hr
6.2 * 60 = 372 minutes

Nancy and Sue make 11 bags the first hour

all together they make 23 bags per hour
they have 149 - 11 = 138 bags to make
138/23 = 6 hours
so total of 7 hours
7 * 60 = 420 minutes
