Answer should be 60. K/A = 5/3 -- > K = 5A/3 (K-10)/(A+10) = 7/5 => 5K - 50 = 7A + 70 => 5K - 7A = 120 => 25A/3 - 7A = 120 => 4A = 120 *3 A = 90 K = 150 K-A = 60 Vineet - As logitech and mental stated, the answer is 40.

Anything wrong doing it this way

A's rate = 1/A
B's rate = 1/B

Say A works for t mins
so B works for t-1 mins

Hence t/A + (t-1)/B = 1 (i.e. total work)

t/A + t/B = 1 + (1/B)
t( A + B)/AB = (B + 1) B

t = A(B+1)/(A+B)

-A
