Answer 1

To find out who spent more time writing per problem, we need to calculate the unit rate (minutes per problem) for both Sonia and Maryna using the data provided.

Sonia:

1. For 6 problems: 120 minutes → \( \frac{120}{6} = 20 \) minutes per problem
2. For 18 problems: 360 minutes → \( \frac{360}{18} = 20 \) minutes per problem
3. For 25 problems: 500 minutes → \( \frac{500}{25} = 20 \) minutes per problem
4. For 60 problems: 1200 minutes → \( \frac{1200}{60} = 20 \) minutes per problem

So, Sonia spends 20 minutes per problem.

Maryna:

1. For 8 problems: 200 minutes → \( \frac{200}{8} = 25 \) minutes per problem
2. For 15 problems: 375 minutes → \( \frac{375}{15} = 25 \) minutes per problem
3. For 20 problems: 500 minutes → \( \frac{500}{20} = 25 \) minutes per problem
4. For 50 problems: 1250 minutes → \( \frac{1250}{50} = 25 \) minutes per problem

So, Maryna spends 25 minutes per problem.

Comparison:

• Sonia: 20 minutes per problem
• Maryna: 25 minutes per problem

Thus, Maryna spent more time writing per problem at the unit rate of 25 minutes per problem.

So the correct response is:

"Maryna spent more time writing per problem at the unit rate of 25 min. 1 problem."
