so we have:

that means William spends 6 minutes and 40 sec cooking a meal.\

Now we can solve:

In 6 minutes and 40 sec, how many rooms can Jacob clean?

We know Jacob spend 30 minutes cleaning a room so in 10 minutes or 1/3 of a clean room Williams had already cooked another meal. Thus, the closest answer is a)1/3 of a clean room.
