Answer:

529\text{ hours}

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN: Lisa​, an experienced shipping​ clerk, can fill a certain order in 1010 hours.Bill​, a new​ clerk, needs 1111 hours to do the same job.

TO FIND: Working​ together, how long will it take them to fill the​ order.

SOLUTION:

Total hours taken by Lisa =1010 hours

Total hours taken by Bill =1111 hours

Let the total time taken when working together be x hours

Now,

Total time taken by Lisa and Bill when working together

\frac{1}{1010}+\frac{1}{1111}=\frac{1}{x}

\frac{1}{x}=\frac{21}{101\times110}

x\approx529 hours

Hence Lisa and Bill will take 529 hours to fill the order when working together.
