How long does it take Maryann to rescue one friend? ** First find the total time it takes Maryann to rescue one friend: 6 minutes + 8 minutes = <<6+8=14>>14 minutes
How long does it take Maryann to save all three friends? ** Then multiply the time to save one friend by the number of friends Maryann needs to save: 14 minutes/friend * 3 friends = <<14*3=42>>42 minutes
