A can do a piece of work in 10 days and B can do the same work in 12 days. A and B worked together for 2 days. How many more days are required to complete the remaining work if they work together?
A). 2(2/11)days
B). 3(3/11)days
C). 3(5/11)days
D). 6(3/11)days
3(5/11)days
A can do 1/10 of the work in a day.
B can do 1/12 of the work in a 1 day.
Both of them together can do (1/10 + 1/12) part of work in 1 day = (6 + 5)/60 = 11/60
They take 60/11 days to complete the work together.
Given that they already worked for 2 days.
The number of days required to complete remaining work => 60/11 - 2 = 38/11 = 3 (5/11) days.
