\n" ); document.write( "Lorna can do the whole job in 8 days; so in 4 days, she can do 4/8 = 1/2 of the job.

\n" ); document.write( "Her assistant can do the whole job in 12 days; so in 4 days, she can do 4/12 = 1/3 of the job.

\n" ); document.write( "In 4 days together, the fraction of the job they can do is 1/2+1/3 = 3/6+2/6 = 5/6.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
