The 10000 words are split into 2/5 and 3/5; so (2/5)10000 go to Olive and (3/5)10000 words go to George.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "George: 6000 words
\n" ); document.write( "Olive: 4000 words\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"R%2At=w\", Rate, time, words\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"t=w%2FR\", each time portion is done separately, nonsimultaneously.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%286000%2F60%2B4000%2F50%29%2Aminutes=t%2Aminutes\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"100%2B400%2F5\"\r
