Work Problems• To do work problems
you must remember three things.
•1. When working together, one person does part of the job (a fractional amount).
•2. The sum of the parts equals a whole job.
•3. To solve the equation, you must get common denominators.

One More Thing…• Write your final answer in
sentence form and check your solution for reasonableness and accuracy.
• Yes, word problems are difficult, but they are not impossible… with the right organization and persistence.

completed
If more than one person is working
together to complete a task,
then the part that each person does,
will add up to equal the job.
