Matt can paint a house in 12 hours. Patty can paint the same house in one third the time. Rachel can paint the same house in 5 more than double the amount of hours as Patty. How long will it take Rachel to paint the house? Give me reasons, before answering the question
Patty: 12 / 3 = 4 hours. Rachel: 5 + 2(4) = 13 hours. So the final answer is 13.
