Question 73

A person A can complete a work in 15 days working 8 hours daily. A second person B can complete the same workin 20 days working 7 hours a day. If both A and B work together, working 7 hours a day, then the number of days required to complete that workis

Total hours required by A = 120 hoursΒ 
Total hours required by B = 140 hoursΒ 

Total hours needed by both working together = (120*140)/260 = 840/13 hours
But,Β A and B work 7 hours each dayΒ 

Hence, total days required together = 840/(13*7) = 120/13 daysΒ
