A is thrice as good as B in work. A is able to finish a job in 60 days less than B. They can finish the work in___________days if they work together.

A is thrice as good as B in work. A is able to finish a job in 60 days less than B. They can finish the work in___________days if they work together.

A. 18 days
B. 22 ½ days
C. 24 days
D. 26 days
If A completes a work in 1 day, B completes the same work in 3 days
Hence, if the difference is 2 days, B can complete the work in 3 days
=> if the difference is 60 days, B can complete the work in 90 days
=> Amount of work B can do in 1 day= 1/90
Amount of work A can do in 1 day = 3 × (1/90) = 1/30
Amount of work A and B can together do in 1 day = 1/90 + 1/30 = 4/90 = 2/45
=> A and B together can do the work in 45/2 days = 22 ½ days
