What would be the reduction in manufacturing lead time if the second machine could not be set

Question:

What would be the reduction in manufacturing lead time if the second machine could not be set up until the setup was completed on the first machine?

An order for 100 of a product is processed on operation A. The setup time is 50 minutes, and the run time per piece is 9 minutes. Since this is a rush order, it is to be split into two lots of 50 each and run on two machines in the work center. The machines can be set up simultaneously.
