Consider to hire somebody who will edit your posts after you . . .


This passage  " . . . at most twice as faster as . . . "  is  FAR  BEYOND  of anybody's imagination . . .

A group of friends nailed it when it comes to video editing.
Ana can edit a video in 7 days alone,
Shereene can edit the same video in 5 days.
:
Find how long it takes a and s to do it together
let t = time required when they work together
let the completed job = 1
+ = 1
multiply by 35, cancel the denominators
5t + 7t = 35
12t = 35
t = 35/12
t = 2.917 days working together
:
:
If Shereene and Anna can edit the same video at most twice as fast as Eufemia does alone,
That means it takes e: 2*2.917 = 5.833 days for e to do it alone
:
how long will it take if Anna and Eufemia edit the same video together?
let s = time required when a and e work together
+ = 1
multiply by 40.833, cancel the denominators
5.833s + 7s = 40.833
12.833s = 40.833
s = 40.833/12.833
s = 3.182 days, a and e working together
