Question

Pat can mow the grass on the football field in 45 minutes. Jordan can mow

Answer 1

You set up the equation like this:

T/45+T/53=1

You find the least common factor of 53 and 45 and times both sides so you end up with this:

53T+45T= least common factor

Then add up 53T and 45T.

98T= least common factor

Then divide 98 from both sides. That will be your answer.

Sorry I didn't have enough time to find the least common factor but it is a number that they both go into. I would check to make sure I'm correct. I hope this helps!
