Paul can install a 300 hundred square foot hardwood floor in 18 hours. Matt can install the same floor in 22 hours. How long wou

Vadim26 [7]

ANSWER

Paul and Matt will take
$9.9 \: \: hours$
to install the floor working together.

EXPLANATION

First, calculate Paul's rate, which is

$= \frac{1}{18}$

Next, calculate Matt's rate, which is,
$= \frac{1}{22}$

Let us assume that, Paul and Matt took
$x \: hours$
to do the work together.

Then, the rate of working together is,

$= \frac{1}{x}$

Now, add the individual rates and equate to the rate of working together to form an equation that will help us solve for x.

$\frac{1}{18} + \frac{1}{22} = \frac{1}{x}$

Simplify the left hand side

$\frac{11 + 9}{198} = \frac{1}{x}$

$\frac{20}{198} = \frac{1}{x}$

We reciprocate both sides to get (You could have also done cross multiplication).

$\frac{198}{20} = \frac{x}{1}$

$x = 9.9 \: hours$

Answer: Use Fractions and Multiplication.

Step-by-step explanation:

To start, you need to find 1/6 of 12. The easiest way to do this is to multiply 12/1 by 1/6. The answer is 12/6, which simplifies to 2. Then, you do the same for 2/3: 12/1*2/3=24/3, which simplifies to 8. You then add the results to figure out how much has been eaten. 8+2=10
