Answer:

3
(3)/(4) days

Explanation:

Let the amount of work be x.

Daniel:

10 days = x

1 day =
(1)/(10) x

Father:

6 days = x

1 day =
(1)/(6) x

Together:

1 day =
(1)/(10) x +
(1)/(6) x

=
(6)/(60) x +
(10)/(60) x

=
(16)/(60) x

=
(4)/(15) x

No. of days =
(15)/(15) x ÷
(4)/(15) x

=
(15)/(15) x ×
(15)/(4) x

=
(225)/(60)

= 3
(3)/(4)
