You need two equation to solve for two variables exactly.

Answer:

Janice and Karen could do in 1 day:

20% of the job.

Step-by-step explanation:

To identify how much of the job could janice and caren do in 1 day, first, we must find how much of the job make just 1 person at the same rate:

If three persons make a job in 3 1/3 days, 1 person make the job in x:

3 persons ⇒ 3 1/3 days or 10/3 days
1 person ⇒ x

Then:

$x=\frac{1 person*\frac{10}{3}days }{3 persons}$ (we cancel the unit "persons")
$x=\frac{\frac{10}{3}days }{3}$
x = 10 days

Just a person would need 10 days to complete a job, now, we're gonna divide this value in 2 to obtain the time that need two persons to complete a job:

Time to complete a job between 2 persons = $\frac{10}{2}days$
Time to complete a job between 2 persons = 5 days

How two persons need 5 days to complete a job (in this case, the two persons are Janice and Karen), we can make a simple rule of three to obtain the percentage made in 1 day:
