Answer:

It will take Marcus 56 minutes more to deliver 100 papers than 72 papers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose Marcus delivers papers at a rate of 9 papers in 18 minutes.

So, he can deliver 100 papers in = [tex]\frac{18}{9}\times100= 200[/tex] minutes

He can deliver 72 papers in = [tex]\frac{18}{9}\times72= 144[/tex] minutes

Difference in delivering time = [tex]200-144= 56[/tex] minutes

Hence, it will take Marcus 56 minutes more to deliver 100 papers than 72 papers.
