At a loading dock, each worker on the night crew loaded 2/3 as many boxes as each worker on the day crew. If the night crew has 5/6 as many workers as the day crew, what fraction of all the boxes loaded by the two crews did the day crew load?
Select the correct option.
A) 6/11
B) 7/12
C) 8/13
D) 9/14
E) 11/15
Let x be the number of workers on the day crew.   Let y be the number of boxes loaded by each member of the day crew.   Then the number of boxes loaded by the day crew is xy.   The number of boxes loaded by the night crew is (5x/6)(2y/3) = 5xy/9   The total number of boxes is xy + 5xy/9 = 14xy/9   The fraction loaded by the day crew is xy / (14xy/9) = 9/14   The answer is 9/14.
