Answer:

2.67 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Diana: 15 cookies per hour

Jamie: 7.5 cookies per hour

15 + 7.5 = 22.5

22.5 cookies per hour

[tex]\frac{60}{22.5} =\frac{y}{1}[/tex]

22.5 · y = 60 · 1

22.5y = 60

22.5y ÷ 22.5 = 60 ÷ 22.5

[tex]y=2\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

[tex]2\frac{2}{3}[/tex]  rounded to the nearest hundredth is 2.67
