rama can do a piece of work in 8 days. asha can do same piece of work in 14 days. in how many days they both will do it together.
Hello Ashish,
Here is the solution of your question.I will be giving answers in 2 methods . One is long method and another one is short one.
Long Method:-
Rama's 1 day work will be = 1/8
Asha's 1 day work will be = 1/14
So, Rama and Asha together's work in 1 day = 1/8 + 1/14 = 11/56
So together they can complete work in 56/11 days .
Short Method:-(Trick)
Days required to work together = (8*14)/(8+14) = 56/11 days .
Hope you find the answers useful.
