Ques:- A can do a piece of work in 12 days. When he had worked for 2 days B joins him. If the complete work was finished in 8 days. In how many days B alone can finish the work?
Recent Answer : Added by Admin On 2022-09-29 15:25:12:

The work done by A in 8 days is = 8/ 12 = 2/3

Means A alone completes 2/3 part of work.

Remaining work which is (1–2/3) = 1/3 is completed by B in 8–2 = 6 days

So the complete work done by B in 6/(1/3) = 18 days.

B alone can complete the work in 18 days.
