A can do a work in 15 days and B in 20 days. If they together work on it for 4 days what fraction of the work will be left ?
Answers:
A’s 1 day work = 1/15
B’s 1 day work = 1/20
(A + B)’s 1 day work = 1/15 + 1/20
= (4 + 3)/60 = 7/60
(A +B)’s 4 days work = (7/60) × 4 = 7/15
Remaining work = 1 – (7/15) = (15 – 7)/15
= 8/15
