X and Y can do a piece of work in 20 days and 12 days respectively. X started the work alone and then after 4 days Y joined him till the completion of the work. How long did the work last?
4(1/20)+x(1/20+1/12)=1 12/60+x(3/60+5/60)=1 3/15+x(2/15)=1 2x/15=1-3/15 *15 2x=15-3 2x=12 /2 x=6 the answer is 6 days of working together and 4 days x alone 10 days in sum
A AND B WORK ANOTHER 10 DAYS TO FINISH THE BALANCE OF WORK 4/5
X started the work alone for 4 days, doing 4/20, or 1/5 of the work, leaving 4/5ths of the work to be done. Let n be the amount of days X and Y worked together. Then: n/20+n/12=4/5 3n+5n=48 8n=48 n=6 days of working together to finish the job ☺☺☺☺
