2 team's r cleaning highways it takes 1 team 5 minutes to clean 200 yards how many minutes will it take to clean 2 miles?
Answered by DonHo
First convert yards to miles:

200 yards = 0.114 miles

Set up a relation:

(5mins/0.114miles) = x / 2miles

Solve for x to get answer in minutes

It takes 1 team 5 minutes to clean 200 yards
It takes 2 teams 5 minutes to clean 400 yards
(assuming they don't get in each other's way)

1760/400 = 22/5

It takes 2 teams 5(22/5) minutes to clean 1760 yards
<b<It takes 2 teams 22 minutes to clean 1 mile</b>

(DonHo's answer is appr 87.7 minutes)
