How many hours will the two of them have to work to solve the same problem? ** Since you're doubling the number of people working on the task, that means you will be able to reduce the amount of time worked in half if they're of equal skill.
How many hours will the two of them have to work to solve the same problem? ** Therefore, you take the original time of 10 hours and perform 10/2= <<10/2=5>>5 hours spent working on the problem.
