Really??? I mean.. If math ability were beans and most people got a whole plate full, and more if they asked; I wouldn't have enough to make a popcorn fart, and even I can figure that out... Draw up a damned equasion for a start... Word problems throw a lot of people for a loop...

And if you ever have to confront such a possibility in reality remember that people need regular breaks and nutrition just as horses need food and rest and trucks need gasoline and lubrication...It always takes longer than you expect...

I've already helped you on a similar one. We try not to complete teenage homework here.

@mekha1987,
R+W=6:30
2R=6:30-2:10=4:20
2R+2W=13:00
2W=13:00-4:20=8:40

Only compared to dire and drafty old age... I wouldn't wish it on anyone I cared about...
