Answer 2

Answer

Time taken to paint the fence by Marco  and Jaylyn is 2.72 hours

Heading can be given to this is work per hour

Explanation

Macro 6 hours to paint fence by himself

Therefore his 1 hour work = 1/6

Jaylyn 5 hours to paint the same fence by herself

Therefore 1 hour work of  Jaylyn  = 1/5

Together 1 hour work = 1/6 + 1/5 = 11/30

Therefore time taken to paint the fence together by them = 30/11 = 2.72 hours
