Answer 1

Answer:

Hence, B will finish the remaining work in 11 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

A's 1 day's work =251

Similarly, B's 1 day's work =201

A's and B's together 1 day's work

251+201=1004+1005=1004+5=1009

Their 5 day's work together = 5 x 1 day's work

1−10045=100100−10045=100100−45=10055

Now, this remaining work is done by B

.

Let B takes x days to complete it.

201×x=10055⇒x=10055×20⇒x=555⇒x=11

Hence, B will finish the remaining work in 11 days.
