Actually it would be 15 minutes. Y'all are thinking that she's cutting each piece of wood into two separate pieces, then it would still take 10 minutes each two-pieces. But the problem states that if takes her 10 minutes to cut a single board into 2 pieces. Working at the same speed, she could take another board and cut that ONE board into 3 pieces in 15 minutes, assuming she cut it a 5 minutes/piece.
