we know that Bob can do the whole job in 14 hours, how much of the work has he done in 1 hour only? well since he can do the whole lot in 14 hours in 1 hour he has only done 1/14 th of the job.
we know that James can do it in 18 hours, a bit slower, so in 1 hour he has done only 1/18 th of the job.
let's say it takes both of them working together say "t" hours, so in 1 hour Bob has done (1/14) of the work whilst James has done (1/18) of the work, the whole work being t/t or 1 whole, so for just one hour that'd 1/t done by both Bob and James.
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey there!
This is a one-step equation, meaning that we can solve it in one step.
This is the step:
- Subtract 14 from both sides
Goal:
- To find out the value of x
Subtract 14:
x+14-14=63-14
the 14's on the left cancel:
x=49
Hence, the answer is
Hope everything is clear.

You would have 10 muffins left because 1/3 of 15 is 5 so 15-5=10
There an old algorythmic method similar to long division:-
7 . 4 8 3
-----------------
) 56. 00 00 00
7 ) 49
) ---
144 ) 7 00
) 576
----
148 8 ) 12400
) 11904
-------
) 496 00
1496 3 ) 44889
THis gives the square root as 7.48 to the nearest hundredth
