The answer is B A trust

Answer:

6 hours for daughter alone     Answer A

Step-by-step explanation:

Rate of mom to clean one house =  1 house /3 hrs  = 1/3

rate of daughter   = 1/x

Now find the time to clean one house with their combined rates for one house

1 /   (1/3 + 1/x )    = 2 hrs

1/3 + 1/x = 1/ 2

x + 3 = 3/2 x

3 = 1/2 x

x = 6 hrs   daughter alone
