Should be :( since that is the WRONG answer - as a simple credibility check on the answer would tell you. If they work together, how can it take longer than Sam doing it alone?
Sam can do the driveway in 2 hours so Sam does 1/2 driveways per hour.
Max can do the driveway in 3 hours so Max does 1/3 driveways per hour.
So Sam + Max do 1/2 + 1/3 = 5/6 driveways per hour.
To do 1 driveway would, therefore, take them 1/(5/6) = 6/5 hours = 1.2 hours or 1 hour 24 mintes.

About 26 mins 35 secs (26.6 mins). In 1 minute, Janet will shovel 1/45 of the snow and Bill will shovel 1/65. Thus in 1 minute, working together they will shovel 1/45 + 1/65 = 22/585 of the snow. Thus to shovel all the snow will take: 585/22 minutes = 2613/22 minutes ~= 26 mins 35 secs.
