Answer 1

let a be x and b be y

from the first condition
5x-y=60...1
from the second conditions

x=5y
x-y=5 so level and get answer

Answer 2

Answer:

A can complete work in 15 days and B can complete work in 75 days .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A takes x days to complete work

Since we are given that A can work 5 times faster than b

So, B can complete work in 5x days

We are given that A  takes 60 days less than b to complete the work.

So, $5x-x=60$

$4x=60$

$x=15$

So, A takes 15 days to complete work

B takes 5x= 5*15 = 75 days to complete work

Hence A can complete work in 15 days and B can complete work in 75 days .
