algebra precalculus - In how many days can Sachin alone complete the work given the following conditions?


Alok and Sachin agree to complete a piece of work in 20 days?They also agree to forfeit double the amount of wages corresponding to the uncompleted part of work,if they fail.If Alok alone can complete the work in 40 days and they lost 1/3 of the pay of the total work.In how many days can Sachin alone complete the work?





options:



a) 60 b) 24 c) 36 d) 30



MyApproach:



Alok+Sachin=20 Days




If they fail,They agree to forfeit double the amount of wages corresponding to the uncompleted part of work



If Alok alone can complete the work in 40 days.



Therefore,Alok did 2.5% work in 1 day and given:(together)they did 5% work(20 days).



Therefore,Sachin do 2.5% work.




I am confused how to use these equations to solve the problem.




Can anyone guide me how to approach the problem correctly.
