Once you attempt the question then PrepInsta explanation will be displayed.
Here, we see that George does 53th of work in 9 days.
So, he will complete the work in 9×35 = 15 days.
After 9th day, Paul Comes to join him.
Work left to be done = 1 - 53=52
They both complete the work in 4 more days.
Since, it takes george 15 days to complete the work.
In one day, he will complete 151th of work.
In 4 days, he will do 154th of work.
Now, work done by Paul in 4 days = 52−154=152
So,Paul completes 152th of work in 4 days.
Therefore, In one day he will complete 602 of work or 301 of work.
So, number of days taken by paul to complete the work is 30 days.
