Step-by-step explanation:
A:B = 2:1 ratio of work
A does 2x work
B does x work
A+B = 3x part of work done in 14 days
A = 14×3x/2x = 21 days
B = 14 ×3x/x = 42 days

Answer:
if they do the work separately A would complete work in 14 days and B in 24 days
Step-by-step explanation:
As A is twice as good as B so we will first find the value for A by subtracting from B but keeping the statement in hand. first divide the days equally which means A=7 and B=7 then we know A does twice so divide 7 by 2 to get the final value for A and B which is B=3.5 and adding For A's final value 3.5+7=10.5
A=10.5 and B=3.5, so they both get seperated which means their help is reduced A=10.5+3.5=14
while B=10.5+3.5 but twice more time than A which means B=28
A=14,B=28
