Question 853293: Worker A can finish a job in 3 hours. When working at the same time as worker B,they can finish the job in 2 Hours. How long does it take for Worker B to finish the job if he works alone? Answer by hamsanash1981@gmail.com(151) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! A's one hour work = 1/3
A+B's 1 hour work = 1/2
1/3 +B = 1/2
B = 1/2 -1/3
B = (3-2)/6
B = 1/6
Therefore B alone takes 6 hours to complete the work
