Given that <span>Jack rakes the yard in 5 hours and Jill rakes the yeard in 8 hours. Let the amount of time that it takes them to rake the yard together be t, then:

\frac{1}{t} = \frac{1}{5} + \frac{1}{8}  \\  \\ = \frac{8+5}{40} = \frac{13}{40}  \\  \\ \therefore t= \frac{40}{13} =3 \frac{1}{13}\ hours</span>
