The answer is:
It will take 7.5 hours to paint the room together.
Why?Using the given information we need to write an equation considering both Colleen and Rebecca rates.
For Colleen we know that she can paint a room in 12 hours, so, her equation will be:
Being "t" the time used to paint.
For Rebecca, we know that she can paint a room in 20 hours, so, her equation will be:
Now, if we want to calculate the time needed to paint 1 room, we have:
Hence, we have that it will take 7.5 hours to paint the room together.
Have a nice day!
