I can help you solve the questions from the image. Let's go through each one individually:

### 13. **Arun and Bala working together**
Arun can complete a task in 22 hours, and Bala can complete the same task in 6 hours. How long will they take together?

We use the formula:
\[
\text{Work rate} = \frac{1}{\text{time taken}}
\]

So, for Arun: 
\[
\text{Work rate of Arun} = \frac{1}{22}
\]
For Bala:
\[
\text{Work rate of Bala} = \frac{1}{6}
\]

When they work together, the combined work rate is the sum of their individual rates:
\[
\text{Combined rate} = \frac{1}{22} + \frac{1}{6}
\]

\[
\frac{1}{\text{Total Time}} = \frac{1}{22} + \frac{1}{6}
\]

Now, let me calculate this.

The total time taken for Arun and Bala to complete the task together is \( \frac{33}{7} \) hours, which is approximately **4.7 hours**.

Thus, the answer to question 13 is:
**A. 4.7 hours**

### Would you like me to solve the next question? Feel free to ask for clarifications or more details. 

Here are 5 related questions to practice:
1. How do you calculate work rates when multiple workers are involved?
2. If another person could do the same task in 8 hours, how would the total time change?
3. How would the formula change if the workers had different efficiency levels for different parts of the task?
4. How does dividing the work among multiple people reduce the overall time?
5. Can the total time ever exceed the time taken by the slowest person?

**Tip**: When solving work-related problems, always sum up the rates to get the combined rate, and take the reciprocal to find the total time.

Arun can complete a task in 22 hours, and Bala can complete the same task in 6 hours. How much time will they take to finish the task if they work together?

Learn how to solve a work-rate problem where Arun can complete a task in 22 hours and Bala in 6 hours. This involves adding rates and calculating the time to complete the task together. Suitable for students in Grades 8-10.
