The given rates are in hours per gallon. If we rewrite them in terms of gallons per hour, we have ... ... Jenny + Penny = 1/2 . . . . gallon per hour

... Penny + Lenny = 3/5 . . . gallon per hour

... Jenny + Penny + Lenny = 1 . . . gallon per hour

Subtracting the 2nd equation from the last, we have ...

... (Jenny +Penny +Lenny) -(Penny +Lenny) = (1) -(3/5)

... Jenny = 2/5 . . . . gallon per hour

It will take Jenny 5/2 = 2.5 hours to eat a gallon of ice cream by herself.
