Mathew is a mover. He is able to pack up ½ of a room in ¾ of an hour. The owner of the house has 7 rooms. How much time it will take Mathew to pack up all the rooms, if he continues at that pace?

It would take him 10 hrs and 30 minutes.

To solve the problem, we need to use the formula:

time = amount of work / rate of work

Let's let x be the amount of time it takes for both Edie and Dan to paint the wall together.

The amount of work is the entire wall, which is 1.

The rate of work for Edie is 1/3 (as she can paint the wall in 3 hours).

The rate of work for Dan is 1/6 (as he can paint the wall in 6 hours).

So, using the formula:

x = 1 / (1/3 + 1/6)

x = 1 / (2/6 + 1/6)

x = 1 / (3/6)

x = 2

Therefore, it would take Edie and Dan 2 hours to paint the wall if they work together.
