Person A can complete a job in 3 hours. Person B can complete the same job in 8 hours. How long will it take them to finish together?
Step 1: Find each person's rate (fraction of job per hour). A's rate = 1/3 of the job per hour B's rate = 1/8 of the job per hour Step 2: Combined rate = 1/3 + 1/8 = 8/(3×8) + 3/(3×8) = 11/24 Step 3: Time = 1 / (combined rate) = 24/11 = 2.18 hours Answer: 2.18 hours
