Question 470746: if John paints a house in 6 hours and ted paints a house in 12 hours, how long will it take if they work together?
Answer by Alan3354(69443)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! In 1 hour, John can do 1/6 and Ted can do 1/12.
Can you go from there?
-------------------
I had a problem similar to this in 8th grade algebra. I worked on it over an entire weekend before I figured out how to do it, and all like it.
Has someone showed me how to do it, I would not have had the experience of solving it myself. I think that experience was, at least in part, contributed to my better than average abilities in math, and in figuring things out in general.

It's not about getting the answers.
