Frank can type a report in 2 hours and James takes 7 hours. How long will it take the two of them typing together?

x = 1 hour and 33 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = time (hours) it takes typing together

then

x(1/2 + 1/7) = 1

 multiplying both sides by 14:

x(7 + 2) = 14

x(9) = 14

x = 14/9

x = 1.56 hours

or

x = 1 hour and 33 minutes

Hope tjis help you!:)

14/9 hr

Step-by-step explanation:

If you divide Frank's ability to write 1 report by 2 hours, he could write half a report in an hour. James could write one seventh of the report in a hour after dividing his ability to write 1 report in 7 hours. Find the least common denominator between 2 and 7, which is 14 convert 1/2 to that, which would be 7/14 and 2/14. Add That together and you'd get the amount of report they can write in an hour. If you multiply this by a number equalvilent to flipping 9/14, you'd get 1. This number is 14/9 hours.
