Ram and Shyam together can finish a job in 8 days. Ram can do the same job on his own in 12 days. How long will Shyam take to do the job by himself?

Answer»

24 days



If A and B TOGETHER can do a piece of work in X days and A alone can do the same work in y 

days, then B alone can do the same work in x y/ y – x days. 

Therefore, the No. of days Shyam take to finish the job alone = 8 × 12/12 – 8 

= 8 × 12/4 = 24 days.
