Question 1122754: Hi, I really need your help to this problem. Here it is.
Two cabinets makers each has 300 small cases to make. One can make 15 cases an hour, while the second can make 13. At the time the first finishes the job, how many cases more does the second cabinet makers have to finish?
Thank you for your help!
(1) The first cabinet maker can make 15 cases an hour. How many hours does it take him to make his 300 cases?
(2) The second cabinet maker can make 13 cases an hour. In the time it takes the first cabinet maker to make all 300 of his cases (answer to (1) above), how many does the second cabinet maker make?
(3) So how many does the second cabinet maker have left to make at that time?
