Answer:
Each bridesmaid will spend [tex] 162\frac{1}{2}\text{ minutes}[/tex] making decorations.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following information in the question:
Total number of bridesmaid = 5
Total number of decorations to be done = 325
Time taken to do 1 decoration = [tex]2\frac{1}{2}\text{ minutes}[/tex]
Amount of time each bridesmaid will spend making decorations =
[tex]\text{Number of decorations to be done by each bride}\times \text{Time taken to do 1 decoration}\\\\=\displaystyle\frac{\text{Total number of decorations}}{\text{Total number of bridesmaid}}\times \text{Time taken to do 1 decoration}\\\\=\frac{325}{5}\times 2\frac{1}{2} = \frac{325}{5}\times \frac{5}{2}\\\\= \frac{325}{2} = 162\frac{1}{2}\text{ minutes}[/tex]
Thus, each bridesmaid will spend [tex] 162\frac{1}{2}\text{ minutes}[/tex] making decorations.
