No! It would take them two hours. Seventy-five(an hour and fifteen minutes) plus sixty minutes would equals one thirty-five. Which is two hours.

Given: Shandra can do the complete work in 45 minutes.

So, Shandra's 1-minute work = 1 / 45  and

Kelly can do the same complete work in 1 hour and 15 minutes = 75 minutes.

So, Kelly's 1-minute work = 1 / 75

Now, we shall calculate Shandra's and Kelly's 1-minute work

By both 1 minute work = (1/45) + (1 / 75) = 8 / 225

∵ 8 /225 Parts can be completed by both = in 1 minute

∴ Complete work (1) can be completed by both = 225 / 8 minutes

or,                                                                           = in 28 minutes and 7.5 second

Hence, the assumption taken by both was incorrect.

The best described time will be 28 minutes and 8 seconds.

A car travels 15 1/10 miles in 1/3 of an hour. What is the average speed, in
jasenka [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

Miles = 15 1/10

Miles = 151/10 miles

Hour = 1/3 hour

Av = 151/10 miles / 1/3 hour

Av = 151/10 × 3 / 1/3 × 3

Av = 453/10 miles / hour

Av = 45,3 mil / h
