प्रश्न

A can-do `1/4` of work in 5 days and B can do `1/3` of the same work in 10 days. Find the number of days in which both working together will complete the work.

योग

उत्तर

A can-do `1/4` of work in = 5 days

A can-do 1 work in = 5 × 4 days

= 20 days

B can do `1/3` of work in = 10 days

B can do 1 work in = 10 × 3 days

= 30 days

A's 1-day work =`1/20`

B's 1-day work =`1/30`

(A+B)'s 1 day work =`1/20+1/30`

`=(3+2)/60`

`=5/60`

`=1/12`

∴ A and B working together will complete the work in = 12 days
