b. If the speed of the car was 24 mph during the first part of the drive, find the total amount of time it took Randy to drive to work that day.
please help

Answer 1

you have to find the common denominator between these:

\(\large\color{black}{ \displaystyle \frac{ 6}{x} +\frac{ 6}{3x} }\)

so that you can add them.

Answer 2

is it 3 ?
