Hope it helps you, please mark me as brainliest.

Step-by-step explanation:

24 days

A can do (1/60)th of the work in a day. So in 15 days, A does 15*1/60 = 1/4th of the work.

The remaining 3/4th of the work is done by B in 30 days. So the entire work would be done by B in 30*4/3 = 40 days.

So if A and B together do the work they will do (1/60)+(1/40) = (2+120)+(3/120) = 5/120 or 1/24th of the work in a day.

So A and B together will do the same work in 24 days.
