do a piece of work 6 days. In how many days B alone can do?
a) 8 days b) 6 days c)10 days d) 12 days

Answer Posted / geetika thakkar

say the work is w and let no of days taken by b is 'x' which
we have to calculate
so work done by a in one day is w/6
work done by b in one day is w/x
a and b together can do work in 4 days ie=(w/6)+(w/x)=(w/4)
solving equation x=12
so no of days taken by b=12

Is This Answer Correct ?    9 Yes 1 No
