A can do 1/2 a piece of work in 8 days so he finishes the work in 2*8 days(16)
so one day work of A is 1/16
B can do 1/3 a piece of work in 8 days so he finishes the work in 8*3 days(24)
so one day work of B is 1/24
If they both work together they can finish the work in 1/((1/16)+(1/24)) days
which is 9.6 days
