Emmett:

A” finishes his work in 15 days while “B” takes 10 days. How many days will the same work be done if they work together?

Dva:

If A takes 15 days to finish his work then, A’s 1 day of work = 1/15 B’s 1 day of work = 1/10 Total work is done by A and B in 1 day = 1/15 + 1/10 If we use LCM(15, 10), we would get 1 day’s work of A and B =

Emmett:

would that be (2+3)/30

Dva:

Yes so now 1 days of work would equal what?

Emmett:

1/6?

Dva:

Yes correct so if A and B can finish the work in 6 days if they work together.
