Practicing Success
A and B together can finish a work in 20 days. If they worked together for 8 days, then what was the share of work that was yet to be completed? |
$\frac{3}{5}$ $\frac{4}{5}$ $\frac{2}{5}$ $\frac{1}{5}$ |
$\frac{3}{5}$ |
A + B = 20 days, Lets' take efficiency of A + B as 1. Therefore, total work = 1 x 20 = 20 units, ..(Efficiency × Days = Total work) ⇒ A + B worked for 8 days = 1 x 8 = 8 units, ⇒ Fraction of work left = \(\frac{20 - 8}{20}\) = \(\frac{12}{20}\) = \(\frac{3}{5}\) |
