Wilma can mow a lawn in 80 mintues.Melissa can mow the same lawn in 120 minutes. How long does it take for both Wilma and Melissa to mow the lawn if they working together ?
There is a formula for that; Total time = (Worker 1 * Worker 2) / (Worker 1 + Worker 2) Total time = (80 * 120) / (80 + 120) Total time = 9,600 / 200 Total time = 48 minutes
