    Answer : Option D

    Explanation :

    (A + B)'s 20 day's work =[\( \frac { 1 } { 30 }\)*20]=\( \frac { 2 } { 3} \)

     

    Remaining work =[1-\( \frac { 2 } { 3} \)]=\( \frac {1 } { 3} \)

     

    Now,\( \frac {1 } { 3} \)work is done by A in 20 days.

     

    Therefore, the whole work will be done by A in (20 x 3) = 60 days.
