You must find the relative rates of both workers...

T=f/3 and J=f/2 so if they work together to clear the field then:

ft/3+ft/2=f make all terms have a common denominator of 6

(2/2)(ft/3)+(3/3)(ft/2)=(6/6)f

2ft/6+3ft/6=6f/6 multiply both sides by 6

2ft+3ft=6f divide both sides by f

2t+3t=6 combine like terms on left side

5t=6 divide both sides by 5

t=6/5 hr

t=1 1/5 hr

t=1 hr 12 min

Is the fraction 1/3 equivalent to a terminating decimal or a decimal that does not terminate

umka21 [38]

1/3 is equivalent to a decimal that does not terminate. A terminating decimal is one that ends. Some decimals never end, however. If you divide 1 by 3 using the standard algorithm, you will get 0.333333... repeating forever. This is a non-terminating decimal, or repeating decimal. In contrast, 1/4 is equal to 0.25, which is a terminal decimal.
