8 rock in 5 minutes

Answer:

33 minutes and 45 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can easily set up a proportion...

He can paint 8 rocks in 5 minutes. He can paint 54 rocks in x minutes.

[tex]\frac{8}{5} =\frac{54}{x}[/tex]

8 * x = 54 * 5

8x = 270

4x = 135

x = 33.75

So, it will take Ronnie 33 minutes and 45 seconds to paint 54 rocks.

Hope this helps!
