You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Monday he does 1/12
Wednesday he did 1/3 or 4/12
Thursday he does 1/4 or 3/12
Tuesday he did 90 feet.
So the full job is 1%2F12+%2B+4%2F12+%2B+3%2F12+%2B+90feet
%287%2F12%29Job+%2B+90feet+=+FullJob
%287%2F12%29Job+%2B+90feet+=+%2812%2F12%29Job
90feet+=+%285%2F12%29Job
90%2A%2812%2F5%29feet+=+Job
216feet+=+Job
