-Vincent can process 50 orders in 2 hours working alone. When Leela is in the room, Vincent works at twice his normal speed. When Fry is in the room, Vincent works at half his normal speed. If Vincent works alone for 10 minutes, then with Leela for 10 minutes, and then alone for 10 minutes, then with Fry for 10 minutes, then alone for 10 minutes, and this pattern continues (alone, with Leela, alone with Fry), how many minutes will it take to process 50 orders?
