  1. [tex] \huge \underline \bold \red {Answer:}[/tex]

    6.66 days

    [tex] \huge \underline \bold \red {Explanation:}[/tex]

    Fraction of work done by A in 1day = 1/16

    Fraction of work done by A in 4 days = 4/16 = 1/4

    Fraction of work done by B in 1 day = 1/20

    Fraction of work done by A & B in 1 day = ( 1/16) +(1/20 ) = (20+16)/320

    = 36 /320 = 9/80

    Work remaining = 1- (1/4 ) = 3/4

    No.of days required to complete the work by A & B working together

    = (3/4) /(9/80) = ( 3×80)/(4×9) = 240/36 = 60/9=6.66

    A & B would require 6.66 more days to complete the remaining work .
