It takes john 4 hours to mow a lawn. it takes mary 3 hours to mow the same lawn. How long would it take if both of them worked together. ---

[quote=“sedlmeier101"”] It takes john 4 hours to mow a lawn. it takes mary 3 hours to mow the same lawn. How long would it take if both of them worked together. [/quote] Obviously Mary is doing a half -assed job if it takes her only three hours and takes John four hours. A man would never let his lawn look half-assed. So John will do it alone. Mary will then make iced-tea for John. Trick question. Four hours. EDIT\_ I should read before I post… Bob Saget was right. ---

they must have a really nice lawn/house if it take 4hrs to do a lawn. I hate rich people…if they are doing well enough to have a lawn that size why are they mowing their own lawn? ---
