[Bank clerks 2009]


  • Explanation

    According to the formula, If person P can do a work in x days and person Q can do the same work in y days then, one day work of P and Q together is xyx+y

    so, 6×126+12=7218=4 days

    Hence, is both of them work together, work will be completed in 4 days

    Hence option B is correct
