Asked by Diamond
Working together, Sarah and Jeff can do a task in 6 hours. Jeff uses a motorized cart to do the task, whereas Sarah uses a pushcart. If each person does the task without the help of the other, it takes Sarah twice as long as it takes Jeff. How long does it take Sarah to complete the task?
