OMG this question is so weird but please take it seriously. Working together, Tom and Di ck can dig 3 holes in 6 hours. Knowing Tom digs twice as fast as Di ck, how many hours would it take Tom, working alone, to dig 12 holes?

Tom can dig 12 holes in 36 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Tom and Di ck dig 3 holes in 6 hours.

Tom works twice as fast as Di ck, so it is as if Tom is the same as 2 people at Di cks's speed and Di ck is as if it is 1 person at Di ck's speed. This means it is as if there are 3 people working at Di ck's speed.

Di ck working alone can dig 1 hole is 6 hours.

Tom can dig 2 holes in 6 hours.

Tom can dig 12 holes in 36 hours.

x/3-10=8

x/3=18

x=48

.632

step-by-step explanation:

6 * 1/10 = 3/5

3*0.01 = 0.03

3/5 + 0.03 = .63

2*0.002 = .002

.63 + 0.002 = .632
