10 hours

Respuesta :

Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation:

it would take six hours, and i solved this simply. i just kept counting up. if 1/12 of the building is cleaned in half an hour, then 2/12 of the building is cleaned in 1 hour. i just kept adding 1/12th of the building per half hour, and figured out that it would take 6 hours to clean the whole building.
