Charles can do the whole job in an hour, Bill can do 1/2 of the job in an hour, and Bob does 1/3 of the job in an hour.  Therefore, they do a total of 1+1/2+1/3=11/6 of the job in an hour, meaning it takes them 6/11 of an hour.  This is 6/11*60=360/11 minutes, or approximately 33 minutes.

Charles does a complete job in 1 hour.
Bill does 1/2 of a job in an hour.
Bob does 1/3 of a job in an hour.

If they're all working on the same job, or copies of the same one,
then working together, they do (1 + 1/2 + 1/3)  job per hour.

   (1) + (1/2) + (1/3)  =  (6/6) + (3/6) + (2/6) = 11/6  job/hour

Working at the rate of  11/6 job per hour, the team needs <em>6/11 hou</em><em>r</em> per job.

6/11 hour is 32 minutes 43-21/33 seconds .

How many even 3-digit positive integers can be written using the digits 1,2,4,7, and 8?
N76 [4]

Looking at the question, we can see we have 5 different numbers that can go in any order.

<u>5</u> * <u>4</u> * <u>3</u>

The above is basically saying there are 5 different numbers that can be multiplied by 4 other numbers. Those 2 can be multiplied by 3 different ones, leaving us with a 3 digit positive integer.

5 * 4* 3 = 60
