How long would it take 100 storks to catch 100 frogs when 5 storks need 5 minutes to catch 5 frogs?

5 minutes since that is the total duration...the additional storks can do things simultaneously, right?

Well...you can look at it more than one way. If it took 5 storks 5 minutes to catch 5 frogs then how often is each stork going for a frog? The logical answer could be anywhere from 1 minute to 5 minutes or 25 minutes....it all depends on what's on the storks mind. Heck...maybe the storks will never catch al 100 frogs....what if one gets away???

If it takes 5 storks 5 minutes to catch 5 frogs, then it takes 1 stork 5 minutes to catch 1 frog. Therefore 100 storks would take 5 minutes to catch 100 frogs. The logic is that each stork requires 5 minutes to catch each frog.

one minute, 5 storks catch five frogs in five minutes, that's one frog a minute.
