Question

Hannah can paint a room in 8 hours. Destiny can paint the same room in 6 hours. How long does it take for both Hannah and Destiny to paint the room it they are working together?

Answer 1

Answer:

3 hours 26 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

1/8 + 1/6 = 1/t  where t is the required time in hours.

Multiply through by 24t:-

3t + 4t = 24

7t = 24

t = 3 3/7 hours

or  3 hours 26 minutes to the nearest minute.
