A can finish a work in 18 days and B can do the same work in 15 days. B worked for 10 days and left the job. In how many days, A alone can finish the remaining work?
5

5 1
2

6
8
Answer: Option
Explanation:

B's 10 day's work = ( 1 x 10 ) = 2 .
15 3

Remaining work = ( 1 - 2 ) = 1 .
3 3

Now, 1 work is done by A in 1 day.
18

Therefore 1 work is done by A in ( 18 x 1 ) = 6 days.
3 3

X/18 +10/15 =1.
X+12 = 18,
X = 18 - 12,
= 6 days.

@Rucha.

How you calculate that rate?

Arsh said:   10 years ago
{(1/15)*10}+{(1/18)*x} = 1.

x = 6.
