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 4 hours and John can paint the same house in 6 hour how long will it take for of them to paint the house together?
Sally does a quarter of the house in an hour, John does one-sixth, so together they would do 5/12 in an hour, thus it would take 12/5 hours ie 2 hrs 24 min in theory. In practice, because of arguments it would probably take three hours plus!
If john can paint a house in 5 hours and joe can paint a house in 3 hours how long will it take for both of them to paint the house?
The way you calculate this (assuming that both work at constant speed) is:* Calculate what part of the house each person can paint in an hour. * Add both fractions together, to calculate what part of the house you can paint together. * Take the reciprocal of this last result, to calculate the number of hours.
