If it takes a lion 2 hours to devour a sheep a wolf 3 hours to devour a sheep and a dog 5 hours to devour a sheep How long would it take to devour one sheep if they all ate at the same time?

The way to solve this kind of problem is to calculate how much each animal eats in an hour, and add the fractions. (Of course, some assumptions are being made, mainly, that the lions eat at the same rate all the time.)In an hour, the lion eats 1/2 sheep, the wolf 1/3 sheep, and the dog, 1/5 sheep. Adding the fraction:1/2 + 1/3 + 1/5 = 15/30 + 10/30 + 6/30 = 31/30. The time it takes all together is the reciprocal of this: 30/31 of an hour, approximately 58 minutes.
