Correct Answer: 6 days


Solution : Time taken by Rohan to do the work = 10 days
Part of work done by Rohan in a day = $\frac{1}{10}$
Time taken by Mohan to do the work = 15 days
Part of work done by Rohan in a day = $\frac{1}{15}$
Part of the work done by Rohan and Mohan in a day = $\frac{1}{10}$ + $\frac{1}{15}$ = $\frac{3+2}{30}$ = $\frac{1}{6}$
Time taken by Rohan and Mohan to do the work = 6 days
Hence, the correct answer is 6 days.
