when camping alone , mr adam uses all of the water in 12 days, then when mrs adams and mr adams camp together they use all of th
professor190 [17]

Using the together rate, it is found that if Mrs Adams camps alone, she will use all the water in 24 hours.

<h3>What is the together rate?</h3>

The together rate is the sum of each separate rate.

In this problem, the rates are:

  • Together: 1/8.
  • Mr Adam: 1/12.
  • Mrs Adams: 1/x.

Hence:

\frac{1}{12} + \frac{1}{x} = \frac{1}{8}

\frac{x + 12}{12x} = \frac{1}{8}

12x = 8x + 96

4x = 96

x = \frac{96}{4}

x = 24

If Mrs Adams camps alone, she will use all the water in 24 hours.
