Answer:

32

Step-by-step explanation:

Imagine that each person is assigned one wall, and all 8 people begin painting at the same time.

Since everyone will finish painting their assigned wall after 32 minutes, it takes one person 32 minutes to paint one wall.

If we have 12 people and 12 walls, we can again assign one wall to each person.

Everyone will take 32 minutes to paint their assigned wall.

In other words, it takes 32 minutes for 12 people to paint 12 walls.
