Answer:

  3 15/17 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Sue's rate of completion is ...

  1/6 order per hour

Jim's rate of completion is ...

  1/11 order per hour

Assuming they can appropriately divide the work, their total rate of completion will be ...

  (1/6 + 1/11) = (11+6)/(66) = 17/66 . . . . order per hour

The time for one order is the inverse of that: 1/(17/66) ...

  66/17 hours per order = 3 15/17 hours per order

Working together, it will take Sue and Jim 3 15/17 hours to fill the order.

The Fairview High School community of 1854 students and 58 teachers attended a special performance of a play at a local theatre.
Bumek [7]

Answer:

a) yes, as the number of seats (2352) is larger than the total audience (1912)

b) 440 empty seats

Step-by-step explanation:

a) total number of seats = number of rows x number of seats in each row

total number of seats = 49 x 48

total number of seats = 2352 seats

total audience = 1854 students + 58 teachers

total audience = 1912 people

b) empty seats = total number of seats - total audience

empty seats = 2352 - 1912

empty seats = 440
