(solving rate problems). Michelle can complete a
landscaping job in 6
days and Danielle
can complete the
same job in 4 days.
Working together, in
how many days
could they complete
the job

They could complete the job together in 2.4 days

The known parameters are;

The number of days it would take Michelle to complete the landscaping job = 6 days

The number of days it would take Danielle to complete the landscaping job = 4 days

The unknown parameter;

The number of days can the job be completed if they work together

The process of finding the solution;

The rate at which Michelle works = 1/6 of the landscaping work per day

The rate at which Danielle works = 1/4 of the landscaping work per day

Method;

Find their combined work rate, from which the time would take them to complete the job together can be found

Let, C, represent their combined work rate

Therefore, we have;

C = (1/6 + 1/4) = 5/12 of the landscaping (work) job/(per) day

The number of days they could complete the, 1, job = 1 job(work)/(5/12 (work)job/day) = 12/5 days = 2.4 days

∴ The number of days they could complete the job together = 2.4 days.
