Answer:

  3 3/4 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

If Henry can fill 2 shelves in the time it takes Jacob to fill one, working together they can fill 3 shelves in 3/4 hour, an average rate of 1/4 hour per shelf. It will take them 15 times 1/4 hour to fill 15 shelves.

Henry and Jacob working together can fill 15 shelves in 3 3/4 hours.
