The total time taken to assemble one unit of R and one unit of S exceeds the time taken to assemble two units of Q by 8 minutes. One unit of Q, two units of R and one units of S take 31 minutes to be assembled. The time taken to assemble two units of Q, one unit of R and three units of S is 48 minutes.
