उत्तर

Amutha can weave a saree in 18 days.

Anjali is twice as good as Amutha.

ie. If Amutha weave for 2 days, Anjali do the same work in 1 day.

If Anjali weave the saree she will take

`18/2` = 9 days

Hence time taken by them together ab

= `"ab"/("a" + "b")` days

= `(18 xx 9)/(18 + 9)`

= `(18 xx 9)/27`

= `(6 xx 1)/3`

= 6 days

In 6 days they complete weaving the saree.
