Terry the frog and Charles the rabbit want to do a job with 30 equal parts. If they do the job together it would take them 300 hours to finish the job. If they do the job separately, Terry would be 60 hours faster than Charles.

When they do the job together, how many of the parts should Terry expect to do? (Express your answer in the form a + b*(sqrt c)) Explain.
