the coolest math question ever... can somone help me?

A baker can decorate the day's cookie supply four times as fast as his new assistant. If they decorate all the cookies working together in 36 minutes, how long would it take for each of them to decorate the cookies working individually?

Mmmmmm, cookies. X2

I like Chocolate Chip.

Baker decorates 4/5 of the cookies in 36 minutes, so to do 5/5 of the cookies he decorates them in 33.2 minutes, or 33 minutes and 12 seconds.

the second one is more straightforward. 36x5= 180 minutes = 3 hours

Does this post and these others help your question? I sure hope so. And if not let me add one little thing...

Those cookies better be Oreos or this question has absolutely no chance to be cool whatsoever.

Uh, it would take the baker 45 minutes to bake them all himself...

I told my maths teacher 1337 + 1337 = Chuck Norris and he told me to leave the classroom :(Brainkiller05

Your answer was too awesome to stay in the room, I see.
