Answer:

(14/19) / 2 = 16.5 hours

(This applies if both fields are in)

if you wanted to find out 1 field if they worked together it would be 8.25 hours

Answer: 7.44 hours??? (not too sure)

Explanation: Perry harvests 1/14 of a field in an hour and Eduardo harvests 1/19 of a field. 1/14 + 1/19 = 33/266 then you multiply by an hour
