Question 148464
Jack=1/4 of a house a day
Jill=1/6 of a house a day
x=amount of time in days

Together 1/4+1/6 house a day
or 5/12 house a day

5/12x=1

x=12/5 day

or 2 and 2/5 day


Let's translate 2/5 in time
One day=24 hours
2/5 times 24= 9.6


9.6 hours...


.6 hours?


Translate in minutes
.6 of 60 minutes=36 minutes


2 days, 9 hours, and 36 minutes
