Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFGiven:
A can complete a work = 7 × 3 = 21 days
B can complete a work = 10 × (7/2) = 35 days
Formula used:
Total work = efficiency × time
Calculation:
| Efficiency | Person | Time | Total work |
| 5 | A | 21 | 105 |
| 3 | B | 35 |
Now,
Time taken by A and B together to complete the work = 105/8
⇒ 13\(1\over8\) days
∴ The correct answer is 13\(1\over8\) days.
