Hello there I hope you are having a great day :) You Question A plumber can complete a job in 2 hours. If an apprentice helps, it takes only 1 1/3 hours. How long would it take the apprentice working alone?
(1 1/3) / 2 + (1 1/2) / a = 1
(4/3)a + (4/3)2 = 2a multiply both sides by 2a
(4/3)2 = (2/3)a subtract (4/3)a from both sides
8/3 = 2a/3 simplify
8 = 2a
4 = a
Hopefully that help you :)
