A and B can together finish a work 30 days. They worked together for 20 days and then B left. After another 20 days, A finished the remaining work. In how many days A alone can finish the work?
Answer: Option
Explanation:
(A + B)'s 20 day's work = | ![]() |
1 | x 20 | ![]() |
= | 2 | . |
30 | 3 |
Remaining work = | ![]() |
1 - | 2 | ![]() |
= | 1 | . |
3 | 3 |
Now, | 1 | work is done by A in 20 days. |
3 |
Therefore, the whole work will be done by A in (20 x 3) = 60 days.
