The number of hours, h it will take 5 people to build the swing set is; 2.4 hours

<h3>What is the number of hours it will take 5 people to build the swing set?</h3>

From the task content, it follows that it took 6 hours for 2 people to build the swing set, hence, it follows that it'd take 12 hours for 1 person to build the swing.

However, when the work is divided between 5 People, the time taken is therefore; 12/5 = 2.4hours.

on monday, it rained 1 1/4 inches. On Tuesday, it rained 3/5 inch. How much more did it rain on Monday than on Tuesday?
34kurt
To find out how much more it rained, you subtract 1 1/4 or 1.25 and 3/5.
So you get 1.25-.6, which is .65 or 13/20 inches.
Hope this helps.
