Paper & answer key PDFX can do a piece of work in 'p' days and Y can do the same work in 'q' days. Then the number of days in which X and Y can together do that work is
To find the number of days that X and Y can do the work together, we need to determine their combined rate of work. X can complete the work in 'p' days, meaning the rate of work for X is 1/p of the work per day. Similarly, Y can complete the work in 'q' days, which gives Y a rate of 1/q of the work per day. The combined rate of work when X and Y work together is the sum of their individual rates: 1/p + 1/q To add these fractions, we first find a common denominator, which is 'pq'. Therefore, the combined rate can be expressed as: (q + p)/pq To find the time taken for X and Y to complete the work together when combined rates are know, we take the reciprocal of their combined rate. Thus, the number of days X and Y together can complete the work is: pq / (p + q) Hence, the correct answer is pq / (p + q).
