Question

In 8 days, P can do
1/6of a job and Q can do 2/3 of the job. In how much time will they complete
1/3of the job if they work together?​

Answer 1

Answer:

16/5 days

Step-by-step explanation:

P=1/6

Q=2/3=4/6

total job in 8 days=1/6+4/6 =5/6

job in 1 day= 5/6 divided by 8

                  = 5/6 x 1/8

                  = 5/48

1/3 job= 1/3 divided by 5/48

          = 1/3 x 48/5

          = 16/5 days
