    Answer:

    He works from 9:30am to 12:50pm.

    He takes a brake at 10:30 for 20 mins.

    Now the time he works will be

    (12:50 – 9:30) – 20

    3:20 – 20

    3:00

    NOTE: TILL HERE DONT THINK THE SIGN ‘:’ IS USED FOR RATIO, ITS USED AS IN TIME. AND THIS MEANS THE NUMBER BEFORE ‘:’ IS HOURS AND THE NUMBER AFTER THE ‘:’ WILL BE MINUTES.

    i.e., 3 hours.No. of pots decorated in 3 hours will be,

    3 hours in minutes÷time taken to decorate one pot.

    ⇒ (3×60)÷12

    ⇒ 180÷12

    ⇒15

    Thus he decorates 15 pots in the given time.
