A computer programmer needs to print 148 documents. The documents have an average (arithmetic mean) length of 10 pages and the printer takes 15 seconds to print each page. Approximately how many hours will it take to print all the documents if they are printed without interruptions?

(A) 1/2 hr

(B) 2 hr

(C) 2 1/2hr

(D) 6 hr

(E) 24 hr

IMO D

Total documents (n) = 148
Each document has avg of 10 pages and takes 15 seconds to print each page.

Total pages/total documents = Avg pages/document
Total pages/148 = 10
Total pages = 1480

1480 * 15 sec / 60 * 60 = 6 hrs (Approx.)

CONCEPT: [m][fraction](Machine_Power * Time)/Work[/fraction] = Constant[/m]
i.e. [m][fraction](M_1 * T_1)/W_1[/fraction] = [fraction](M_2 * T_2)/W_2[/fraction][/m]


Work ([m]W_2[/m]) = 148 Documents = 1480 Pages
Time ([m]T_2[/m]) = ?

[m][fraction](1 * 15)/1[/fraction] = [fraction](1 * T_2)/1480[/fraction][/m]

[m]T_2 = 1480*15 secs = 1480*15/3600 Hours = 6.16 Hours[/m]

Since there are 10 pages in each of the 148 documents, there are a total of 148 x 10 = 1480 pages. Since it takes 15 seconds to print each page, it will take 15 x 1480 = 22,200 seconds to print all of the pages. Since there are 3,600 seconds in an hour, the time in hours is 22,200/3,600 = 222/36 = 37/6 = 6 â…™ hours, which is about 6 hours.

Answer: D
