Question

A community shares a vegetable garden in a park each summer. Last year, it took Sapphire 88 hours to plant the garden by herself. The year before, it took Varsha 66 hours to plant the same garden by herself.

This year, if Sapphire and Varsha work together to plant the same vegetable garden, it would take ??? hours.

What is ???

Answer 1

Answer:

If they work together, it would take them 22 hours.

Answer 2

Answer:

37.71 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Saphire

1garden/88hours

Varsha

1garden/ 66 hours

Together

1/88 + 1/66 = x

use 264 as common denominator

3/264 + 4/264 = 7/264

Together they can do 7 gardens in 264 hours

264/7 = 37.71 hours for 1 garden

Sometimes Brainly double types numbers

If you meant 6 hours and 8 hours

1/6 + 1/8 = x

4/24 + 3/24 = 7/24

24/7 = 3.43 hours
