All members of our painting team paint at the same rate. If 20 members can paint a 2000 square foot wall in 40 minutes, then how long would it take the 20 members to paint a 6000 square foot wall, in minutes?

Same number of painters, but three times the size of the wall.    

would take three times as many minutes:  3 • 40 min = 120 min
