\n" ); document.write( "
Let time experienced worker takes be T
\n" );
document.write( "Then time new worker takes = 2T
\n" );
document.write( "Then the former and latter can do: \"matrix%281%2C6%2C+1%2FT%2C+and%2C+1%2F%282T%29%2C+of%2C+%22job%2C%22%2C+respectively%29\" in 1 hour
\n" );
document.write( "We then get: \"matrix%281%2C3%2C+1%2FT+%2B+1%2F%282T%29%2C+%22=%22%2C+1%2F14%29\"
\n" );
document.write( "14 + 7 = T ------- Multiplying by LCD, 14T
\n" );
document.write( "T, or time taken by the experienced worker to do job, alone = \"highlight_green%28matrix%281%2C2%2C+21%2C+hours%29%29\" \n" );
document.write( "
\n" );
