Mike can build a go cart in 30 days, Jed can build one in 20 days and Erick in 60 days. If all of them share the work, how quick

Gwar [14]

Answer: 10 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Mike: $\frac{x}{30}$

Jed: $\frac{x}{20}$

Erick: $\frac{x}{60}$

Together: $\frac{x}{30}$ + $\frac{x}{20}$ + $\frac{x}{60}$ = 1

60 $(\frac{x}{30}$ + $\frac{x}{20}$ + $\frac{x}{60}$ = 1)

2x + 3x + x = 60

6x = 60

x = 10

It helps to imagine the variable a sort of as a unit. Like with 5 minus 12 lemons, it has no bearings on the addition/subtraction here.

Factor out a and subtract.

$5a-12a \\ (5-12)a \\ \boxed{-7a}$
