I'd agree with Bobz for session time (~45min; the quicker the harder, therefore better) and times to work a muscle group per week (~2-3; need 36-72 hours of rest), but I have to disagree with muscle groups per session!.
Split training works, granted, but is needlessly complicated for most people!. You have to be careful you arn't doubling up on a muscle group (e!.g!.: monday- chest, tuesday- triceps/shoulders =BAD) and you need to visit the gym just about every day!. Doing a total body workout 3 days a week is equally effective, and just simpler!. You can easily complete a good total body session in about 45minutes!. If you're spending much more time then that, you just arn't working hard enough!.
Again, they both work, so pick the one that works best for your temperament and schedule!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It all depends on your body type, but the best work out for an average person should take 30-45 minutes, and you should do it at least 3 times a week!. I would not hit more than 2 groups together!. For example : Back+ Chest / Legs + Shoulders / biceps + triceps!.
