HELP ME PLZ!!!

You can complete three-tenths of a task in an hour. Your friend can complete one-fifth of the same task in an hour. How long will it take to complete the task if you work together? Explain.
_______ hours.

Answer 1

i got 2 hours for the answer

Answer 2

2 hours

Explanation:

If you convert 1/5 to tenths it's 2/10.

If you add 2/10 and 3/10 you get 5/10 which would be how much off the task you got done in one hour.

Therefore you times 5/10 by 2 and you get 10/10 so the task is done and it took 2 hours.
