1/4 is Akash's one day work
Dhruv's one day work is 1/6.
If they both work together they can finish the work in 1/(1/4 + 1/6) days
which is 2.4 days
Dhruv's one day work is 1/6.
If they both work together they can finish the work in 1/(1/4 + 1/6) days
which is 2.4 days

let the total work = x
work done by akash in 4 days = x
work done by akash in 1 day = x/4
work done by dhruv in 6 days = x
work done by dhruv in 1 day = x/6
work done by both in one day = x/4 + x/6
= 5x/12.
5x/12 * number of days = x
number of days = x * 12/5x
= 12/5 = 2.4 days. ANSWER.
