Let n be the amount of time it takes william to cut the lawn. Then Shelly takes
n-2 hours. So:
1/n+1/n-2=1/3
3(n-2)+3n=n²-2n
6n-6=n²-2n
n²-8n+6=0
Using the quadratic formula, we get a positive value of 7.1623 hrs as the amount of time william takes working alone, and 5.1623 as the amount of time Shelly takes working alone

8/20 of every student will be absent from school less than five days a year, which can then be simplified to 2/5.
There are multiple ways to go about this problem, but my preferred way is to then take 1/5th of 400, which can be done by taking 1*400/5 which equals 80. Since we are asking for 2/5's, just multiply that number by 2, which gives us 160 students.
