If Pete can paint a wall in p hours, then in one hour he can paint 1p of the wall. It would take Penelope 3 hours longer than Pete to paint the wall, so in one hour she can paint 1p+3 of the wall. Add the rational expressions 1p+1p+3 to get an expression for the part of the wall Pete and Penelope would paint in one hour if they worked together.
