Answer:
16 days
Step-by-step explanation:
P can do work in 10 days: P can do 1/10 of work in one day
Q can do work in 35 days: Q can do 1/35 of work in one day
If they work on alternate days they will complete:
- 1/10+1/35= 9/70 part of work in 2 days
and in average they will complete:
- 9/70:1/2=9/140 of work in one day
To complete work they need:
- 1:(9/140)=140/9=15.6 days, so if rounded 16 days
Hope it helps
