Eric took 20 hours to do the job alone.

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

<u>Given </u>:

  • Total work = 75 packages
  • Joe took 5 hours to complete the total work.

The amount of work Joe alone can do per hour = 75/5 = 15 packages.

The amount of work Joe and Eric together do per hour = 75/4 = 18.75

The amount of work Eric alone can do per hour = 18.75 - 15 = 3.75

The time Eric took to complete the entire work = 75 / 3.75 = 20 hours.
