At a table factory two different machines can make tables.

At a table factory two different machines can make tables. The older machine can make tables at a rate of 8 per minute and the newer machine can make tables at a rate of 14 per minute. If both machines operate at the same time, how long will it take the two machines to make 132 tables? Only provide the numerical solution for the minutes it will take to make the tables. Round to the nearest hundredth. No units are necessary.
