B is the answer to the question :)
Answer:
It takes them 1.875 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, the job is cleaning the house.
Mom does 1 job in 3 hours.
In 1 hour, mom does 1/3 of the job.
Dad does 1 job in 5 hours.
In 1 hour, dad does 1/5 of the job.
Mom and dad working together do the job in x hours.
In 1 hour, mom and dad together do 1/x of the job.
1/3 + 1/5 = 1/x
5/15 + 3/15 = 1/x
8/15 = 1/x
8x = 15
x = 15/8 = 1.875
Answer: It takes them 1.875 hours.
First, multiply 75 by 8 to get 600.
Then multiply 1/3 by 8 to get 8/3 or 2 2/3.
Add those together to get 602 2/3.
Next multiply 1/3 by 3/4 by multiplying the numerator by 3 and the denominator by 4. That is 3/12. Also known as 1/4.
Multiply 75 by 3/4 by dividing it by 4 then multiplying it by 3. That is 56 1/4.
Add 56 1/4 and 1/4 together to get 56 1/2.
Lastly, add together 56 1/2 and 602 2/3.
Convert the fractions to sixths.
56 3/6 + 602 4/6 = 659 1/6 miles
