    808 minutes

    Explanation:

    Let the time taken by Trent be A and the time taken by Lois be B.

    The total time (T) it will take both of them if they work together is given by the equation below;

    Total time (T) = (AB) / (A + B)

    = (4040 x 1010) / (4040 + 1010)

    = 4,080,400/5050

    Total time = 808 minutes.
