Question 824717: Ruel can paint a room in 5 hours and vergel can do it in 6 hours.what part of the job can they do by working for 2 hours Answer by richwmiller(17219) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 2/5+2/6=(12+10)/30=22/30=11/15
1/5+1/6=1/x
6/30+5/30 =1/x
11/30=1/x
30/11=x
They can paint the whole room in 30/11(2 9/11 almost 3) hours In 2 hours, they finish 11/15 (almost 2/3) of the room.
