Help medal and fan thanks Wendy can wash a car twice as fast as Jason. When they work together, Wendy and Jason can wash a large van in 2 hours. How many hours would it take Wendy to wash the van by herself? 5 3 4 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok wendy says 2 times fast right? so they wash a van in 2 hours ..then she washes one herself ...so you have to think ... Wendy=twice as fast as Jason Jason=? if it takes 2 hours for Jason and wendy....how many hours would it be herself..what were u thinking?

OpenStudy (itsmichelle29):

3 idk

OpenStudy (anonymous):

heres the key word=twice as fast as..... So if it took 2 hours ....would u think it would take "twice as fast"? so....2 doubled =?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1435694091934:dw|.......4 hours is ur answer look over what i wrote o understand...plz medal and have a nice day !

OpenStudy (itsmichelle29):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait...i got it now Wendy=is twice as fast .... Jason=?|dw:1435694343645:dw|...........sorry i got confused here is the correct answer im sure this time!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sense Jason takes 4 hours ..then wendy takes 2 cause she is twice as fast ..makes sense? 2 hours is your answer ...i rechecked and that is correct! did this help plz medal fan me , tag me if want in a post

OpenStudy (itsmichelle29):

so Both of them its 2 hours and wendy is twice faster wouldnt it be 3

OpenStudy (itsmichelle29):

no wait im confused

OpenStudy (itsmichelle29):

no yeah woulnt it be 3

OpenStudy (itsmichelle29):

so wendy would be twice faster so wendy is 3 and the guy would be 6 so both of them would be 6 divided into 3 so 2 together

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no ...wendy is "twice' as fast as Jason ....Jason takes fours hours cause wendy is Twice as fast which means 2 times fast 2 is the answer

OpenStudy (itsmichelle29):

OpenStudy (anonymous):
