Can someone please try to figure this out for me quickly? thank you!

NEW PROBLEM:

(Π = pi)

MORE PI-RATES

Four π-rates can varnish the wooden deck of their ship in 3 hours and 14 minutes. Suppose that three π-rates have to do the job. If all the π-rates work at the same rate, how long would it take three π-rates to varnish the deck?

if x is total hours of work
x/4 = 3,23h/pirate
x = 4*3,23 = 12,93h

if 3 pirates were to carry this work out instead, it would be
x/3 = 12,93/3 = 4,3h/pirate

4h 19min
