उत्तर
`1/2` of the work is done by P in 6 days
∴ Full work is done by P in `6/(1/2)` = 6 × 2 = 12 days
`2/3` of work done by Q in 4 days.
∴ Full work is done by Q in `4/(2/3) = 4 xx 3/2` = 6 days
(P + Q) will finish the whole work in `"ab"/("a" + "b")` days
= `(12 xx 6)/(12 + 6)`
= `(12 xx 6)/18`
= 4 days
(P + Q) will finish `(-3)/4` of the work in `4 xx 3/4` = 3 days.
