A can do the work in 15 days
⇒ 1 day = 1/15 of the work
B can do the work in 20 days
⇒ 1 day = 1/20 of the work
A and B work together:
1 day = 1/15 + 1/20 = 7/60 of the work
4 days = 7/60 x 4 = 7/15 of the work
Find the work that remain:
Work remain = 1 - 7/15 = 8/15
Answer; There is still 8/15 of the work to be done

Answer is 8/15
Because A = 1/15
B = 1/20
1/15+1/20= 4/60+ 3/60 ( LCM is 60)
7/60 x 4 = (We multiplied by 4 because in the question 4 days was given...so...when 60 and 4 cuts it equals to 15...so 15 is taken as denominator)
7/15
(1= 15/15)
15/15 - 7/15
= 8/15
So 8/15 fraction of work is left
