Correct Answer: $\frac{3}{7}$


Solution : If Aadish can complete the work in 14 days, then in 1 day he completes $\frac{1}{14}$ of the work.
So, in 8 days, he completes $=8 \times \frac{1}{14}= \frac{8}{14} = \frac{4}{7}$ of the work.
Therefore, the fraction of the work that is left $=1 - \frac{4}{7} = \frac{3}{7}$
Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{3}{7}$.
