Correct option is A
Step by Step Solution:
Step 1
Let total work is 36.
Step 2
S's capacity: 1/12 work per day.
R's capacity: 1/12 work per day.
Calculate efficency of S.
36 * 1/12 = 3.
Step 3
S's work done in 4 days: 4 * 3 = 12.
Step 4
Remaining work: 36 - 12 = 24.
Step 5
Calculate R efficency.
24 * 1/12 = 2.
S and R's combined capacity: 3 + 2 = 5 work per day
S and R's combined Time: 36/5 = 7.2 days
Final Answer:
S and R together can finish the work in 7.2 days.
