At the end of 1 hour, Tony has collected 3 bags, while Ralph and Della combined has collected 3 bags.

At this rate, for any amount of time Tony collects as much trash as Ralph and Della combined.

This question is not difficult

tony=3 bags/hour

R and D =(1+2)=3 bags /hour

After 1 hour R and D have collected the same as Tony
