37.5 minutes

================

To find out how long it will take the waiter to set 1 table, divide the time taken to set 8 tables by 8:

  • 10/8 = 1.25 minutes

Since there are 30 tables in total, multiply the time taken to set 1 table by 30 to find the total time it will take to set all the tables:

  • 1.25 * 30 = 37.5 minutes

So, it will take 37.5 minutes the waiter to set all the tables in the dining room.
