1 answer

If Lillian and Mackenzie cleaned the same number of rooms today but Mackenzie worked fewer hours, it suggests that Mackenzie is likely more efficient at cleaning rooms compared to Lillian.

Since tomorrow they will have the same length of shifts, it is reasonable to conclude that if Mackenzie maintains her efficiency, she will clean more rooms than Lillian during that same amount of time. Therefore, Mackenzie is likely to clean more rooms tomorrow.
