उत्तर

A can finish a piece of work in = 15 days

B can finish a piece of work in = 10 days

∴ A's 1 day work =`1/15`

B's 1-day work =`1/10`

(A+B)'s 1-day work =`1/15+1/10`

`=(2+3)/30=5/30=1/6`

(A+B)'s 2 days work =`1/6xx2=1/3`

Remaining work which will be done by A alone

`=1-1/3=(3-1)/3=2/3`

∴ A can finish 1 work in = 15 days

A can finish `2/3` work in =`15xx2/3` days

`=30/3`days = 10 days
