Can you read and give me the equation I need? NO SOLVING REQUIRED, it would be the biggest help:)))

Jordan is a manager of a car dealership. He has two professional car washers, Matthew and Arianna, to clean the entire lot of cars. Matthew can wash all the cars in 14 hours. Arianna can wash all the cars in 11 hours. Jordan wants to know how long it will take them to wash all the cars in the lot if they work together.

Write an equation for the time it will take Matthew and Arianna to wash all the cars together

Respuesta :

The equation would be

x/14 + x/11 = 1

x is the amount of time that they work, and since they are working at the same time, it would be the same variable. We use fractions because we want to find each person’s unit rate.

Then, just solve for x to get the total amount of time.
