Solution
lcm of 12,15=60
lets assume total work to be 60 units
work per day for A = $$\frac{60}{12}$$ = 5 units
work per day for B = $$\frac{60}{15}$$ = 4 units
as they worked together for 5 days so total work completed = (5+4)*5 =45 days
now days taken by A to complete the left over work = $$\frac{60-45}{5}$$ = 3 days
