Answer: Work done by both of them in k hours is

\frac{k(x+y)}{xy}

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of hours Mr. I does a job = x hours

Number of hours Mr. L does a job = y hours

Work done by Mr. I is given by

\frac{1}{x}

Work done by Mr. L is given by

\frac{1}{y}

Work done if they do together is given by

\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{y}\\\\=\frac{x+y}{xy}

Work done if they work together for k hours is given by

\frac{x+y}{xy}\times k\\\\=\frac{k(x+y)}{xy}

Hence, work done by both of them in k hours is

\frac{k(x+y)}{xy}
