\r\n" );
document.write( "Camille and Laurence make \"1%2F2\" of the job per hour.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Gaston makes \"1%2F3\" of the job per hour.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Together, all three make \"1%2F2\" + \"1%2F3\" = \"5%2F6\" of the job per hour.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Hence, it will take \"6%2F5\" of an hour for three to complete the job.\r\n" );
