Janet = 1/3
Gary = 1/2
(1/3) + (1/2) = 5/6
Let x = time they both can do the job together
(1/2) + (5/6)x = 1
Solve for x to find your answer.
Answer:
Number of pencils in stock = 1200
Average number of pencils sold by the manager per day = 24
Number of pencils that would be sold before reordering = 1200 - 500
= 700
Then
The number of days after which the manager will reorder = 700/24
= 29.16
So the manager has to reorder after about 30 days. Since the answer comes in fraction of more than 29 days, so it has to be 30 days. I hope the procedure is clear for your understanding.
Just to be clear, this answer is not mine, but I remember seeing this question so I just copied someones' answer. Still, you might find this helpful.

5(2j+3+j)
= 5(2j) + 5(3) + 5(j) we distribute 5 to all of the expression
= 10j + 15 + 5j connect like terms j
= 15j + 15
