Two persons A and B can complete a piece of work in 18 days and 24 days respectively. If they work together, what part of the work will be completed in 2 days?
Options:
(A) 7/36
(B) 9/35
(C) 4/37
(D) 8/35
(E) 5/3 Think first, then make a decision. Some random thoughts:
A's one day's work = 1/18
B's one day's work = 1/24
(A + B)'s one day's work = 1/18 + 1/24 = 7/72
The part of the work completed in 3 days = 2 (7/72) = 7/36. So the answer is (A).
