The answer is 10 days
(after 4 days, they still needed to install 360 chairs, 600-360=240 - meaning they installed 240 chairs in 4 days. to find out how many chairs they installed in 1 day, divide 240 by 4 and you find they installed 60 chairs per day. Then divide 360 by 60 to find the remaining days needed to install the rest of the chairs, which is 6 days then add it onto the 4 days already completed)
Wilda can do the job in 4 hours ... she does 1/4 (or 0.25) of it each hour.
Karla can do it in 5 hours ... she does 1/5 (or 0.2) of it each hour.
Wilda worked alone for 1 hour ... 0.25 of the job was done before her helper
arrived. So only 0.75 of the job remained to be done together.
Working together, they accomplish (0.25 + 0.2) = 0.45 of the job in 1 hour.
How many times do they need to do 0.45 of the job in order to finish
the 0.75 of it that remains ? That's the number of hours it will take them,
working together.
0.75 / 0.45 = <em>1 and 2/3</em>
After Wilda worked alone for 1 hour and Karla came along to join her, it will
take them another <em>1 hour and 40 minutes</em> to finish the job and go for a swim.
