All members of our painting team paint at the same rate. If 20 members can paint a 2000 square foot wall in 35 minutes, then how long would it take the  members to paint a 5000 square foot wall, in minutes?

The rate of each team member is 2000 square feet / 35 minutes = 57.14 square feet per minute. The time it takes to paint a 5000 square foot wall is 5000 square feet / 57.14 square feet per minute = 87 minutes. The 25 members would take 87 minutes to paint the 5000 square foot wall. So the answer is 87

5000 / 2000 x 35 = 87.5 minutes.

5000 is 2.5 times 2000 so 35 x 2.5 = 87.5 minutes

That answer is wrong.
