    Question

    A and B can complete a work alone in 20 days and 60 days respectively. They began the work together but A left the work after some days and B completed the remaining work in 12 days. After how many days from the beginning A left the work?

    A.

    15 days

    B.

    10 days

    C.

    9 days

    D.

    12 days

    Correct option is D

    Given: A and B can complete a work alone in 20 days and 60 days respectively. B completed the remaining work in 12 days.
    Formula Used: Work done = (Rate of work) × (Time)
    Solution:

    Work done by B in last 12 days = 12 × 1 = 12 work.
    Remaining work done by A + B = 60 – 12 = 48 work
    A left the work after = 48 / 4 = 12 days.
