Answer: it will take them 2.22 hours working together.
Step-by-step explanation:
It takes Destiny y 4 hours to file all the daily paperwork. This means that unit rate of Destiny would be
1/4 per hour.
It takes Susan 5 hours to file the same paperwork. This means that unit rate of Susan would be
1/5 per hour.
If they work together, they would work at their own individual rates. This means that their individual rates are additive.
Let t represent the time it will take them if they worked together. Since their combined rate is additive Therefore,
1/4 + 1/5 = 1/t
9/20 = 1/t
t = 20/9 = 2.22 hours
Answer:
4 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
divide 15 by 3.785
6x-1/5=3
add 1/5 to both sides
6x=1/5+3
convert 3 to fraction with 5 as denomenatory
3/1 times 5/5=15/5
6x=15/5+1/5
6x=16/5
divide both sides by 6
x=16/5 times 1/6
x=16/30
x=8/15
