Question 1076162: Good's Candies of Indiana makes all of their chocolates by hand. It takes Abi 10 minutes to coat a tray of candies in chocolate. It takes Brad 12 minutes to coat a tray of candies. How long would it take Abi and Brad, working together, to coat the candies?

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let n be the amount of time it would take Abi and Brad, working together, to coat a tray of candies. Then:
1/10 + 1/12=1/n
6n+5n=60
11n=60
n=60/11 minutes as the amount of time it would take the two, working together, to coat a tray of candies. ☺☺☺☺
