    The explanation is essentially correct, but a little wordy. Work = Time * Rate

    Since there is 1 house, the respective rates are 1/3 and 1/5 "House per hour".

    The total rate together is (1/3) + (1/5) = 5/15 + 3/15 = 8/15. Hence:

    1 = (8/15)* T. Multiply both sides by 15/8 and you have the result.

    Fair enough! Succinct and to the point, though I think it's worthwhile looking at what constitutes a reasonable answer.  When one fellow can do the job by himself in 3 hours, answers of above 3 hours are clearly not reasonable.

    4 hours sounds right. 2 guys average between them. 5 + 3 = 8 / 2 = 4hrs

    If 1 guy takes 5 hours, 2 should do it in 2.5 hours. If 1 takes 3 hours, 2 should take 1.5 hours. The two work at different paces, but the answer has to be in the range 1.5 to 2.5 hours!
