Rhonda can paint a room in 4 hours. Sam can paint the same room in 5 hours. Rhonda and Sam worked together for one hour then Sam finished the remaining part of the work alone. How long did it take Sam to finish the remaining part?

It would take Sam 4 hours since they both worked together for one hour so all you have to do is subtract one hour from both of their times.
