Answer: 1.3 hours

Explanation: you want to divide Matthews time by Ariannas time since they are working together to wash the whole car lot. When you divide 14 by 11, you get 1.272727 which is a repeated decimal, when you round up the repeated decimal you will get 1.3
Hope this helps!

Answer:

  • ≈ 6 hours 10 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Matthew can wash all the cars in 14 hours ⇒ 1/14 of all cars in 1 hour
  • Arianna can wash all the cars in 11 hours ⇒ 1/11 of all cars in 1 hour

<u>Together they can wash in 1 hour:</u>

  • 1/14 + 1/11 = 25/154

<u>Time needed to wash all the cars:</u>

  • 154/25 = 6.16 hours ≈ 6 hours 10 minutes
