​

Answer 1

Answer:

16 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Ramesh harvests in 16 days

Ramesh harvests 1/16 part in a day.

Sohan and Ramesh harvests in 12 days.

Sohan and Ramesh harvests 1/12 part in a day.

Sohan does = 1/12 - 1/16

                    = 4 - 3/48

                    = 1/48 part in a day.

Sohan and Ramesh 8/12 part

(by cancelling)

     = 2/3 part in 8 days

Work remained = 1/1 - 2/3

                          = 3 - 2/3

                          = 1/3

For, 1/48 part of work, require 1 day

Then for 1/3 part requires 48/3 = 16

Therefore, 16 days will be need for Sohan to harvest the remaining field.
