Question 698538: If Mohan can do the work in 20 days and Aman can do the same work in 30 days then find
in how many days both will do the same work ?

This is a pretty standard rate of work problem.

We just need to set up a simple equation.

In words, if Mohan can do 1/20 of the job in 1 day,

and Aman can do 1/30 of the job in 1 day,

what percentage of the job could they do working together in 1 day?













This means they could do 1/12 of the work in 1 day.

Thus, working together, Mohan and Aman can do the work in 12 days!

I hope this helps! Keep practicing! :)
