Every hour, Jennifer can sew 24dresses while her mother can sew only 20 dresses. how long will it take them to sew 110 dresses together ?
----
Let x be the time to sew 110 dresses
Jennifer DATA:
rate = 24 dph ; time = x hrs ; #of dresses = 24x
------------
Mother DATA:
rate = 20 dph; time = x hrs ; # of dresses = 20x
----
Equation:
# of d + # of d = 110
24x + 20x = 110
44x = 110
x = 2.5 hrs
