    Question

    A can finish a task in 9 days which B can finish in 12

    days. In how many days they can finish if they work together?
    A 82/6 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 52/5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 36/7 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 42/5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    A’s 1 day work = 1/9
    B’s 1 day work = 1/12
    Together in 1 day = 1/9 + 1/12 = (4 + 3)/36 = 7/36
    So total time = 36/7 = 5 1/7 days ≈ 5.14 days
