According to work efficiency, Fangfang makes 40 copies per hour and Hui Hui makes 50 copies per hour.
So Fangfang finished 450 copies, which took 1 1.25 hours.
Hui Hui only needs 9 hours to finish, so Fangfang spent 2.25 hours more than Hui Hui!
In other words, if Fangfang's speed is X, then Hui Hui's speed is 5/4X, and when they cooperate, their speed is 9/4X.
Assuming that the number of cards that each person needs to make is A, then 2A= 10*9/4X. X=4/45A,
So the time for Fangfang to finish A is 45/4 hours, which is 1 1.25 hours.
Hui Hui's speed is 5/4X=5/45A, so the time to complete A is 45/5h, which is 9 hours!
So the answer is 2.25 hours!
