Answer:

8/3 hours

Explanation:

For this question, let us say that 1 job contains 240 files

Computer X does this job in 4 hours

Computer Y does the same job in 8 hours

All we need to find is how long it will take both computers to finish the job

Now we apply the basic combined work formula, which is

Combined Time = (time a * time b)/(time a + time b)

And we known that time a = 4 hrs,

We then substitute this values into the equation to get

Combined time = (4*8)/(4+8)

= 32/12

= 8/3 hours
