The unsimplified answer is 15/50. The answer simplified is 3/10.
equation/how to solve=
there are 50 circus performers total. (15 magicians + 35 performers) so that would be 15 magiciand over 50 performers (15/50)
to simplify... 5 goes into 15 3 times, and 5 goes into 50 ten times. (3/10)
Hope this helped you out!
Answer:
2.4 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Let total work = X
Rate of work done = X ÷ time
Rate of A = X/4
Rate of B = X/6
If they work together, rate is the sum of their individual rates, i.e.
X/4 + X/6
= (3X + 2X)/12 (taking LCM)
=5X/12
Rate = X/time
5X/12 = X/time
time = X÷(5X/12)
time = X × 12/(5X)
time = 2.4 hours
Shortcut:
Product of individual times/sum of individual times
= (4×6)/(4+6)
=24/10
=2.4 hours
