Question

When ringing up a customer, a cashier needs 25 seconds to process payment as well as 1

second to scan each item being purchased. How long does it take to ring up a customer
with 13 items?

Answer 1

26seconds

Explanation:

25+1

Answer 2

38 seconds

Explanation:

It takes 1 second to scan each item. Since this costumer has 13 items, it will take the cashier 13 seconds for the items. Since it takes 25 seconds to process the payment, we will add 25 + 13 to get a sum of 38 seconds.
