    Each hour,

    x makes b/6 bearings

    y makes b/4 bearings

    z makes b/3 bearings

    Together, each hour, x, y and z together make

    b/6+b/4+b/3=b (1/6+1/4+1/3) = b (2/12+3/12+4/12) = b (3/4) = 3b/4 bearings.

    Time to make b bearings =

    b / (3b/4) = 4/3 hours = 1 hour 20 minutes.
