Answer:
56%
Step-by-step explanation:
28/50=56/100
If you were to factor you would do what my teacher likes to call reverse foil so it would look like this (x-9)(x+4) so what you do is you brainsrorm to see what multiplies what to get that and 9*4=36 so that is how you factor -36 to find the -9
Hope this helps if I'm correct if not I will try to find the answer
Let n be old painters time. Then the new painters are 2n. So:
1/n+1/2n=1/6
2+1=2n/6
2n=18
n=9
The old painters take 9 hours; the new ones take 18
