  1. A
  2. B
  3. C
  4. D

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Let's calculate the total work and efficiencies using the LCM method:
* Time taken by Manav =
* Time taken by Manu =

Let the Total Work be the LCM of and , which is .

Now, find the daily efficiency (work done per day):

* Efficiency of Manav =
* Efficiency of Manu =
* Combined efficiency of both =

They worked together for days:



Calculate the remaining work:



Now, Manav leaves, and Manu has to complete the remaining work alone:



Thus, Manu will finish the remaining work in days.
