Correct Answer: 24 days
Solution : Raju and Ramu together can do a piece of work in 8 days. Their 1 day's work = $\frac{1}{8}$ Raju alone can do it in 12 days. Raju's 1 day's work = $\frac{1}{12}$ So, Ramu's 1 day's work = $\frac{1}{8}-\frac{1}{12}=\frac{1}{24}$ $\therefore$ Ramu can complete the work alone in 24 days. Hence, the correct answer is 24 days.
