    A 11(4/11) Days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 16(4/11) Days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 16(16/11) Days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 6(4/11) Days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    LetтАЩs assume the total work = 1 unit (or 1 whole work).

    So, JasonтАЩs 1 day work =┬а 1/20

    Jason + JamalтАЩs 1 day work together = 1/9

    JamalтАЩs 1 day work = (Jason + Jamal)'s 1 day work тИТ JasonтАЩs 1 day work = 1/9 - 1/20 = 11/180

    Jamal alone can complete the work in┬а 180/ 11 days, or approximately 16.36 days
