After how many hours do the generators have the same amount of fuel?

60 - 2.5x = 40 - 1.5x --> x = 20 hours

Which generator runs longer?

60/2.5 = 24 hours

40/1.5 = 26 2/3 hours

The more efficient power generator runs 2 2/3 hours longer.

All you have to do is subtract.

7 3/8 - 3 10/12

Change it into a common denominator: 24

7 3/8 = 7 9/24

3 10/12 = 3 20/24

7 9/24 - 3 20/24 =

6 33/24 - 3 20/24 = 3 13/24

Answer = 3 13/24 ( 85/24 )

~Hope this helped~
