And one day and he traveled five times the sum of the number of hours Brian traveled and 2 together they travel 20 hours find the number of hours each person traveled

Let X represent the number of hours you travelled

Let B represent number of hours Brian travelled

Equation 1 is X + B = 20 (since combination of number of hours you and Brian travelled equal to 20 hours)

Equation 2 is M = 5B (since you travelled five times more than the amount in which Brian travelled)

Plug Equation 2 into Equation 1 (replacing M with its value)

5B + B = 20

Rearrange equation to make B its subject (find B)

6B = 20

6B/6 = 20/6

B = 3 (1/3)

Brian travelled a total of 3 (1/3) (three and a third) hours.

(1/3) of an hour = 60/3 or 60 * (1/3) = 20mins

Brian travelled a total of 3hrs & 20mins.

Plug B value back into Equation 1

M + B = 20

M + 3 (1/3) = 20

Rearrange equation to make M its subject (find M)

M = 20 - 3 (1/3) = 16 (2/3)

You travelled a total of 16 (2/3) (sixteen and two-thirds) hours.

(2/3) of an hour = 60/3*2 or 60 * (2/3) = 40mins

You travelled a total of 16hrs & 40mins.
