Chase can do a job in 3 hours, whereas Campbell takes 4 hours to do the same job. If they work together, how long would it take them to finish the job?

These  types of problems aren't too bad

 

Each hour, Chase  does  1/3  of the job and Campbell does  1/4  of the job

 

Add these fractions

 

1/3  +  1/4  =    7/12

 

Take the reciprocal  =   12 / 7 hrs  =  time for both working together to do the  job
