Answer:
they can pick 27 berry's
Step-by-step explanation:
I think-
They can pick 1.29 liters of berries in 1 minute working together.
--------------------------------------------
The together rate is the sum of each separate rate. In this question:
- We want to find the together rate.
- Jack's rate is [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex]
- Jill's rate is [tex]\frac{4}{10}[/tex]
--------------------------------------------
Together, they can pick x liters, and the rate is: [tex]\frac{1}{x}[/tex]
Then
[tex]\frac{1}{x} = \frac{3}{8} + \frac{4}{10}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{x} = \frac{15 + 16}{40}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{x} = \frac{31}{40}[/tex]
Applying cross multiplication:
[tex]31x = 40[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{40}{31}[/tex]
[tex]x = 1.29[/tex]
They can pick 1.29 liters of berries in 1 minute working together.
