Answer 1

David can pack 132 cartons of jar in one day and his assistant Mark works one quarter ( 1/4)  as fast as David does.

David produces 132 cartoons in 1 day

Mark produces 1/4 of 132 = 33 cartoons in a day 

They both produces (132+33) = 165 cartoons in a day. 

To produce 660 cartoons, it will take: 
 
660 ÷ 165 = 4 days
