Answer:
37.71 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Saphire
1garden/88hours
Varsha
1garden/ 66 hours
Together
1/88 + 1/66 = x
use 264 as common denominator
3/264 + 4/264 = 7/264
Together they can do 7 gardens in 264 hours
264/7 = 37.71 hours for 1 garden

Sometimes Brainly double types numbers
If you meant 6 hours and 8 hours
1/6 + 1/8 = x
4/24 + 3/24 = 7/24
24/7 = 3.43 hours
Answer:
If they work together, it would take them 22 hours.
