What formula is used to determine If sally cfan paint a house in four hours and john can paint the same house in 6 hours how long will it take for both of them to paint the house together?
You don't need a formula. You need to understand where the answer comes from. If you understand where the answer comes from, you can write your own formula. If you don't, then a formula can be dangerous in your hands. -- Sally can paint 1/4 of the house in an hour. -- John can paint 1/6 of the same house in an hour. -- If they work together, then can paint (1/4 + 1/6) = 5/12 of the house in an hour. -- If they paint 5/12 of the house in an hour, then it takes them 12/5 hours to finish the job, or 2.4 hours, or 2hours 24minutes. Well, OK. Here's the formula: S = number of hours it takes Sally J = number of hours it takes John Number of hours it takes them working together = 1 / (1/S + 1/J)
If sally can paint a house in four hours and john can paint the same house in 6 hours how long will it take for both of them to paint the house together?
Sally does 1 job in 4 hours ===> 1/4th of the job per hour.John does 1 job in 6 hours ===> 1/6th of the job per hour.Working together, they do (1/4 + 1/6) = (3/12 + 2/12) = 5/12 job per hour.The job takes 12/5 = 2.4 hours = 2hours24minutes to complete.
If sally can paint a house in four hours and john can paint the same house in 6 hours how long will it take both of them to paint the house?
It will take Sally and John 2.4 hours to paint the house together. This can be calculated by using the formula 1/4 + 1/6 = 5/12, which means they can paint 5/12 of the house per hour together. To find the time it takes to paint the whole house, you can divide 1 (the whole house) by 5/12, which equals 2.4 hours.

If Sarah paints a room in 4 hours and sam paints the same room is 6 hours how long will it take for both to paint one room?
We know that Sally can paint the house by herself in four hours. Put another way, she can paint 1/4 of the house in an hour. Using similar logic, we know John paints at a rate of just 1/6 of a house per hour. If we convert those fractions to fractions with a common denominator, we have 3/12 of a house for Sally and 2/12 of a house for John, so together they can paint at a rate of 5/12 of a house per hour. But that is not yet the answer to the question. If you take the reciprocal of 5/12 houses per hour, you get 12/5 hours per house. That equals 2.4 hours per house. Converting to hours and minutes, you get 2 hours, 24 minutes -- because 0.4 hours equals 24 minutes. (0.4 hours x 60 minutes/hour = 24 minutes.) Algebra OR Above answer of this question is right.but we can also define it some other way, in percentage. May be this solution make esay for some friends to understand.Silly tooks 4 hors to paint 100 % (full house).Jhon tooks 6 hours to paint 100 % (Full house).In an hoursilly can paint 25 % of house & Jhon can paint 16.66 % of house, so they both can paint 41.66 percent of house in an hour.so, if we divide (total required work) / (work they can do in an Hour)= 100 / 41.66we I'll get the total time to paint complete house.ANSWERS IS : 2.4 Hours or 2 hours 24 minutes.
