Frank can type a report in 4 hours and James takes 6 hours. How long will it take the two of them typing together?

3 answers

Add the two hours together.
Brooke's answer makes no sense

Frank's rate = 1/4
James rate = 1/6
combined rate = 1/4 + 1/6 = 5/12

time at combined rate = 1/(5/12)
= 12/5
= 2.4 hours
290*484-59385\6853]3763]= 1480264095740
