Tom is painting a fence feet long. He starts at the West end of the fence and paints at a rate of feet per hour. After hours, Huck joins Tom and begins painting from the East end of the fence at a rate of feet per hour. After hours of the two boys painting at the same time, Tom leaves Huck to finish the job by himself.

If Huck completes painting the entire fence after Tom leaves, how many more hours will Huck work than Tom?
