80% of a work is done by one person in 20 days. Then Another person came and they together finish the remaining work in 3 days. How long another person alone would take to do the whole work?
Detailed Explanation
Whole work is done by first person in 20 * (5/4) = 25 days
so ((1 - (4/5)) = 1/5
So both three day's work = 1/5
first person 1 days work = 1/25,
both 1 days work = 1/15,
second person 1 days work = (1/15 - 1/25)
= 4/150 = 2/75
second person would do the work in 75/2
= 37.5
