A does (1/(12)) work each day  B does (1/(24)) work each day  A worked 6 days alone, then A and  B work x days togother:  ((6+x)/(12))+(x/(24))=1  ⇒x=4  total work done by A: ((10)/(12))=(5/6)  total work done by B: (4/(24))=(1/6)  A should get (5/6) of the total payment,  i.e. (5/6)×180=150 Rs  B should get (1/6) of the total payment,  i.e. (1/6)×180=30 Rs

this is the result in mathematics.    now the result in practice:  A gets 30 Rs and B gets 150 Rs, since  B is the nephew of the boss.

A and B work together in a  day  =(1/(12)) +(1/(24))=(1/8) part of work  In 6day A complete=(6/(12))=(1/2)  A,B complete =8×(1/2)=4days  A′s work:B′s work  =10×(1/(12)):4×(1/(24))  =(5/6):(1/6)=5:1∴  ∴A′s share=(5/6)×180=Rs150
