Question 845262: Hello There,
I'm stuck on this problem on my online algebra homework and can never see to get the answer right, so if anyone who can solve this problem with a valid answer, it would be great!
Problem:
Marcus and Tony work for the same company. Marcus lays a slap of concrete in 4 hours. Tony lays the same size slab in 7 hours. If both work on the job and the cost is $77.00 per hour, decide what the labor estimate should be!

11/28=1/x
x=28/11
28/11*77=196
