$${A}\:{perform}\:\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{6}}{th}\:{portion}\:{in}\:\mathrm{1}{day} \\ $$$${B}\:{perform}\:\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{4}}{th}\:{portion}\:{in}\:\mathrm{1}\:{day} \\ $$$${A}+{B}\:{perform}\:\left(\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{4}}+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{6}}\right)=\left(\frac{\mathrm{3}+\mathrm{2}}{\mathrm{12}}\right)=\frac{\mathrm{5}}{\mathrm{12}}\:{in}\:\mathrm{1}\:{day} \\ $$$${so}\:{A}+{B}\:{complete}\:{work}\:{in}\left(\frac{\mathrm{12}}{\mathrm{5}}\right){days}\:{together} \\ $$
