First, make an organized list of the factors for each number. The common factors are 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16, and the greatest of these is 16. So, the greatest common factor or GCF of 48 and 64 is 16.
<span>2 3/4 = 2.75
so
</span>2 3/4 = 2.75%
Let x = the number of hours Eva needs to complete the job
and y = the number of hours Emily needs to complete the job
x = 6
1/x + 1/y = 1/4
(The amount of work Eva does in 1 hr + the amount of work Emily does in 1 hr should equal 1/4 of the total work)
1/6 + 1/y = 1/4
1/y = 1/12
y = 12 hours
Emily would take 12 hours to do it by herself.
A person would have to work 9 hours to get $63
