Machine A produces  1000%2F4 = 250  sausages per hour.


Machine B produces  1000%2F8 = 125  sausages per hour.


Machines A and B together produce  250 + 125 = 375 sausages per hour.


To produce  1000 sausages,  the two machines should work  1000%2F375 = 8%2F3 hours, i.e. 2 hours and 40 minutes.    ANSWER
