72 minutes

We require their hourly rate of work

Maria cleans \frac{1}{2} the house in 1 hour

Sasha cleans \frac{1}{3} of the house in 1 hour

let x be the time it takes both to clean the house

\frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1}{x}

multiply through by 6x

3x + 2x = 6

5x = 6 ⇒ x = \frac{6}{5}

Together they can clean the house in 72 minutes

Estimate the area for the figure below. Assume that each square in the grid is one square inch.
Nutka1998 [239]

we will segment the sqaure in the shape into the following

full square,

0.75

0.5

0.25

full square = 68

0.75 = 18 x 0.75 = 13.5

0.5 = 5 x 0.5 = 2.5

0.25 = 17 x 0.25 = 4.25

to get the area of figure, we will add up the values that we have gotten

so,

Area of the figure = 68 + 13.5 + 2.5 + 4.25

Area of the figure = 88.25 square meter
