Question

I have 20 minutes to go to the office. I have to clean my room and fold the clothes before I leave. It takes 15 minutes to clean my room and 5 minutes to wrap my clothes.

Do I have enough time to do both chores before I leave?

If so, does it matter in what order I make them?

Solution

The correct option is A Yes, No
Do I have enough time?

Time required to clean the room = 15 minutes
Time required to wrap my clothes = 5 minutes
Total time required =15+5=20 minutes

Time I have before I leave for the office = 20 minutes
Yes. I have enough time to do both chores.

Does it order the matter?

15+5=20 minutes
also 5+15=20 minutes
No, order doesn't matter.
