Answer:
Anil would take 10 days and Sunil would take 15 days to complete the work.
Step-by-step Explanation:
To Determine:
How many days they took to complete the work?
Information Fetching and Solution steps:
Let is consider,
The number of days taken by Anil to complete the required work = d.
The number of days taken by Sunil to complete the required work = d + 5
Work done by Anil in one day = 1÷d
Work done by Sunil in one day = 1÷ (d+5)
Work done together by Anil and Sunil for one day = 1/d + 1/(d+5)
= (d+5+d)/d(d+5)
= (2d+5)/d(d+5)
Work done together by Anil and Sunil for 4 days = 4×(2d+5)/d(d+5) ....[A]
Work done by Sunil in 5 days = 5÷ (d+5) ....[B]
By adding equation [A] and [B], we can determine the complete work
[A] + [B] = 1
((4×(2d+5)/d(d+5))) + (5÷ (d+5)) = 1
8d+20+5d=1d(d+5)
13d+20=d²+5d
−d²+8x+20=0
(−d−2)(d−10)=0
d=−2 or d=10
As number of days can not be negative. So, d = 10. Therefore,
The number of days taken by Anil to complete
the required work = 10 days
The number of days taken by Sunil to complete
the required work = d+5 = 15 days
Hence, Anil would take 10 days and Sunil would take 15 days to complete the work.
