Question

Katrina works as an agent for "Let's Go Air". She averages fifteen passengers every twenty minutes. Stefon also works for the airline and averages fifteen passengers every twenty-five minutes. If Kathrina and Stefon work together, about how many minutes will it take to process fifteen passengers?

Answer 1

The equation computed shows that the number of minutes that it will take to process fifteen passengers is 11.11 minutes.

How to solve the equation

Since Katrina averages fifteen passengers every twenty minutes and Stefon also works for the airline and averages fifteen passengers every twenty-five minutes, this can be represented this:

1/x = 1/20 + 1/25

1/x = 9/100

9x = 100

Divide through by 9

x = 100/9

x = 11.11 minutes
