Sagot :

Answer: [tex]\dfrac{35}{6}\ \text{days},\ 35\ \text{days}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the other person take 6x days

So, andrew takes only x days to paint alone

When they work together, it took them 5 days i.e.

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{x}+\dfrac{1}{6x}=\dfrac{1}{5}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{6+1}{6x}=\dfrac{1}{5}\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{35}{6}\ \text{days}[/tex]

So, time taken by the to finish individually is given by

[tex]\Rightarrow \text{Andrew= }\dfrac{35}{6}\ \text{days}\\\\\Rightarrow \text{Other Person}=6\times \dfrac{35}{6}\\\\\Rightarrow \text{Other Person}=35\ \text{days}[/tex]
