Mario can paint a shed in 3 hours. Tony can paint the same shed in 4 hours. If they work together, how long will it take for then to paint the shed

Thanks

✔ 最佳答案
x/3 + x/4 = 1

=> x = 12/7

So, together it will take 12/7 hrs to paint the shed.

Let n hours be the time taken for them together to paint the shed.

In 1 hour, Mario paint 1/3 of the shed, Tong paint 1/4 of the shed, and they together paint 1/n of the shed.

1/n = (1/3) + (1/4)
1/n = (4/12) + (3/12)
1/n = 7/12
n = 12/7
n = 1 and 5/7

They will take (1 and 5/7) hours to paint the shed.
