Jitesh and Kamal can complete a certain piece of work in 7 and 11 days, respectively. They started to work together, and after 3 days, Kamal left. In how many days will Jitesh complete the remaining work?
161 / 77
Step 1
\(W_{remaining}=1-3\left(\frac17+\frac1{11}\right)=\frac{23}{77}\)
Step 2
\(T=\frac{23}{77}\times7=\frac{161}{77}\text{ days}\)
