You can find one here. Say it take me 2 hours to paint the room and it takes you 3 hours. Then we could write and equation that says the time it takes both of us is 1/2+1/3=1/t.
We need to add these fractions to solve this problem.


In this case we have 5/6 =1/t so we can cross multiply and we have 5t=6 or t=6/5 of a hour.
