3/7 th part of installation of floor will be done by Jasper when working with Yolanda for 3 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

lets complete installing a floor be represented by W

Jasper take 7 hours to complete the installing floor W

so installing done by jasper in 7 hour = W

so installing done by jasper in 1 hour = W:7 = W/7

Working with Yolanda, it will take 3 hours to complete work together.

installation done by jasper in 3 hours = (installing done by jasper in 1 hour) * 3, remaining is done by Yolanda in 3 hours for which we do not need to calculate anything.

lets concentrate only on installation done by jasper in 3 hours

= (W/7) * 3 = 3W/7

so the part of floor installed by jasper = installation done by jasper in 3 hours : total installation = 3W/7:W = 3/7

Hence 3/7 th of installation of floor will be done by Jasper when working with Yolanda for 3 hours.
