A can complete a work in 25 days and B can complete it in 30 days. If they workon it together for 5 days, then the fraction of the work that is left will be:
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e.
Efficiency =
Total work = LCM of 25 & 30 = 150
A's efficiency = = 6 units/day
B's efficiency = = 5 units/day
Total efficiency = 6 + 5 = 11 units/day
Total work done in 5 days = 11 × 5 = 55 units
Remaining work = 150 - 55 = 95 units
So the fraction of the work left = =
