Answer:

15 and 5 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Call x the time taken by the first chap, and y the second.

\left \{ {{x+y = 20 \atop {55x+60y=1125}} \right.

Let's divide by 5 and play with the LHS of the first equation a bit:

11x+ 11y +y = 225\\11(x+y)+y= 225 we know how much x+y is ( first equation!) let's solve.

11(20) +y = 225 \rightarrow y=5 At this point it's easy to check that x=15
