Question 77
A can do a work in 24 days and B in 40 days. If they work on it together for 10 days, then what fraction of work is left?
Solution
Let the total work = LCM of 24 & 40 = 120 units
A's efficiency = 120/24 = 5
B's efficiency = 120/40 = 3
In 1day they can complete 8 units of work
In 10days they can complete 80 units of work
work left =120-80 = 40 units
fraction of work left = 40/120 = 1/3
So the answewr is option B.
