Answer:

508.8 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The most accurate determination mathematically is to assume that Lola will maintain an average of 5.3 seconds per signature as she signs all 96 invitations.

Therefore, multiply the time it takes her to sign each invitation (5.3 seconds) by the total number of invitations there are (96 invitations) to get the projected total amount of time that it will take Lola to sign all 96 invitations: $96\cdot 5.3=\boxed{508.8\text{ seconds}}$
