It takes george 3 hrs to clean his car of snow – it takes Eli 6 hrs to clean the same car – working together how long will it take to clear the car?

people who google go to hell.

(seems easy to me but don't know the answer yet and 3 people gave a different answer)

George can clear 2/3rds in 2 hours, Eli 1/3 in 2 hour, thus 2 hours.

I await to be told the obvious thing I have missed so I can claim illness as an excuse Smiley

No one does fk all when the snow comes do they?  I thought, Britain, its the law to bring everything to a standstill?

UMM, George is cleaning SNOW, Eli is just cleaning the car, there's no mention of snow, so 6 hours?

It's impossible to know.

3hrs to clean the car of snow, 6 hrs to clean the car only but we don't know what clearing it entails.

am I right?

this one happend to my pal the other day, couldnt work out if he'd gotten a good deal or not,(or even what the question is for that matter)

in the betting shop girl comes in selling dvd's, 4 for £10 she says, he wants five after having a look they go back and forth and she says that he can have 4 for £10 and that final and then when they agree on that he can have the 5th for a discount rate of £2!!!!!  but he's paid £2.50 for the rest so wtf?

i still cant work out if the 5th one was a good deal or if he got knocked paying £2.50 each when buying 4, i mean if 4 for £10 was the deal he assumed that it was £3 for one so who got the better deal?

if she sells 1 for £2 she can sell all 5 for £2 and he got knocked?  selling the 5th at £2 when he wanted 5 for £2 is rubbing he's face in it or he got the bargin?

(they all worked and were good copies as well)

first intelligent question ive heard asked on this forum in a long time!

let me tell you what they were as you've obv got the clue to ask that question and see whats pertinent to the answer and what isnt:

Milk
The Wrestler
Valkyrie
Frost/Nixon
Seven Pounds

(obv i got max value out of the deal cos i borrowed them off of him for free but i like where you're going grier)!!

i know you're dying to say: "smash her in the mouth and nick em all" and 99% of the time you'd be correct but we need a more qualified answer on this occasion, you're half way there though!
