Question 881715: Easy Copy Shop has two copiers. One can produce a 100 page document in 20 mins. The other can do the same job in 30 mins. How long would it take both machines working together to produce the document? Answer by JulietG(1812) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Copier A produces 5 pages per minute (100/20)
Copier B produces 3.33 pages per minute (100/3)
Together they produce 8.33 pages per minute
100 pages / 8.33 pages per minute = 12 minutes
