Combine time = 4 hours

Sue's time = 10 hours

Jeff's time = 12 hours

To calculate the number of time it would take Todd to paint the room alone:

How to solve a word problem:

In order to solve this exercise, we would first of all calculate their individual rate and combined rate respectively. Finally, we would add their individual rates together and equate it to the combined rate.

For Sue:

$Rate = \frac{1}{10} \;work/hr$
