उत्तर

A takes 6 hours to finish work

and B take 9 hours to finish the same work

∴ A's 1 hour's work = `1/6`

and B's 1 hour's work = `1/9`

and B's 2 hours work =`1/9 xx 2= 2/9`

(i) Now A's 1 hours work + B's 2 hours work

`= 1/6 + 2/9 = (3 + 4)/18 = 7/18`

(ii) Work left = `1 - 7/18 = (18 - 7)/18 = 11/18`
