Answer:

Julia and Liz worked 10 hours to finish the project.

Explanation:

I don't know if I am 100% right, but I believe this is the answer.

If you take the 24 hours it will take Julia to finish the project on her own and subtract the time it would take Liz you would have 12 hours left then take the 2 hours Liz has already been working on the project you would have 10 hours for both of them to finish the project together.

24 -12 = 12

12 - 2 = 10
