      Question

      A can complete a piece of work in 16 days and B can

      complete it in 24 days. They work together for 4 days and then B leaves. In how many total days is the work completed?
      A 21тЕУ days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 13тЕУ days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 17тЕУ days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 11тЕУ days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Take total work = LCM(16, 24) = 48 units. AтАЩs rate = 48/16 = 3 units/day BтАЩs rate = 48/24 = 2 units/day Together (first 4 days): Daily work = 3 + 2 = 5 units Work done in 4 days = 5 ├Ч 4 = 20 units Remaining work = 48 тИТ 20 = 28 units Now only A works: Time taken by A for remaining work = 28 / 3 days = 9тЕУ days Total time = 4 + 9тЕУ = 13тЕУ days
