A can do a work in 15 days and B in 9 days. If they work on it together for 5 days, then what fraction of work is left?
- A1/6
- B3/7
- C1/3
- D1/9
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
Let the total work be the LCM of 15 and 9, which is 45 units.Efficiency of A = Efficiency of B = Combined efficiency of A and B = Work done by them together in 5 days:
