Question 138

Becca can complete a work in 12 days and Jason can complete the same work in 24 days. If they work together, then the work can be finished in how many days?

Solution

Let us take the LCM of 12 and 24, which is 24 (total work).

Hence, we can say that Becca does 2 units of work per day while Jason does 1 unit of work per day.

Together, they shall do 3 units of work per day.

To complete 24 units, they shall take 8 days.
