Question 711636: Bill takes four times as long to do a job as Jose. Suppose t represents the time it takes Bill to
do the job. Then t/4 represents the time it takes Jose. How long does it take Jose if it takes
Bill 76 minutes? Answer by god2012(113) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Given : Time taken by Bill is 't' , then time taken by Jose is 't/4'
Time taken by Bill = 76 mins
Therefore, time taken by Jose = 76/4 = 19 mins.
