Mary can wash her car in 40 minutes. Tina can wash the car in 25 minutes.
\n" ); document.write( "How long will it take to wash the car if both girls work together on the task?
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------------------------------------------------\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Mary makes \"1%2F40\" of the entire job per minute.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Tina makes  \"1%2F25\"  of the entire job per minute.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Both of them make  \"1%2F40\" + \"1%2F25\"  of the entire job per minute working together.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "It is equal to  \"5%2F200\" + \"8%2F200\" = \"13%2F200\"  of the entire job per minute.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Hence,  they need  \"200%2F13\"  minutes to complete the job.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "It is  \"15\"\"5%2F13\"  minutes.\r
