Question

Jane and Philip working together can do a piece of work in 6 days. Jane working alone takes 5 days longer than Philip. How many days does it take Philip to do the work alone?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Jane+Philip= 6 days

Jane = 5 more than P

J= 5+p

(substitute)

5+p+p=6

2p=1

Philip can do the work in 7days.

Jane= 7+5= 12 days
