(6 hours/ 1 day)* (8 days/ 24 vases)= 2 hours/ 1 vase.

It takes 2 hours to make 1 vase~

first of all you must find out how many vases he makes per day;

24 ÷ 8 = 3 vases per day

So if he makes 3 vases per day now to find how much time he takes per vase you must divide the number of hours he works per day by the number of vases he makes per day;

6 hours ÷ 3 vases =

6 ÷ 3 = 2

so your final answer would be: 2 hours per vase
