Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3=8/x+6
Using cross products
2 * (x+6) = 3*8
2(x+6) = 24
Divide by 2
x+6 =12
Subtract 6
x = 6
Amount of room hannah can paint in an hour = 1/20
amount of room destiny can paint in an hour = 1/16
number of hours = x
1/20x + 1/16x = 1
the reason why this formula is true is, the amount of the room painted in the end should be 1 (the whole room)
4/80x + 5/80x = 1
9/80x = 1
9x = 80
x = 80/9 hours
x = 8.89 hours
