Word Problem

Farmer Peter and Farmer Paula are picking apples from their apple trees. Farmer Peter as already picked 287 apples. Farmer Peter picks another 5 apples each minute. Farmer Paula has already picked 154 apples. Farmer Paula picks another 6 apples each minute.

How long will it take for Peter and Paula to pick the same number of apples?



After 10 minutes who has picked more apples, Peter or Paula?
