What is a fraction?

Fraction number consists of two parts, one is the top of the fraction number which is called the numerator and the second is the bottom of the fraction number which is called the denominator.

Let's suppose the Goblin Girt take x minutes to count the coins in the bag alone.

Then we can frame an equation to find the value of x:

$\rm \dfrac{1}{x}+\dfrac{1}{10}=\dfrac{1}{6}$

$\rm \dfrac{1}{x}=- \dfrac{1}{10}+\dfrac{1}{6}$

$\rm \dfrac{1}{x}=\dfrac{1}{15}$

x = 15 minutes (reciprocal on both sides)

Thus, the Goblin Girt take 15 minutes to count the coins in the bag alone if Goblin Gryh can count the coins in a bag in 10 minutes. If goblin Girt counts with him, they can count all the coins in 6 minutes.
