A can do a piece of work in 12 days and B can do the same work in 18 days. They work together for 4 days and then A leaves. How many days will B take to complete the remaining work?
Explanation:
Total work = LCM(12, 18) = 36 units. Efficiency of A = 3, B = 2. Combined efficiency = 5. In 4 days, work completed = 4 * 5 = 20 units. Remaining work = 36 - 20 = 16 units. Time taken by B to complete the remaining work = 16 / 2 = 8 days.
