Correct Answer: $\frac{4}{15}$


Solution : One day work of Tina = $\frac{1}{15}$
One day work of Manya = $\frac{1}{18}$
One day work of Tina and Manya = $\frac{1}{15}+\frac{1}{18}$ = $\frac{6+5}{90}$ = $\frac{11}{90}$
Six day work of Tina and Manya = $\frac{11}{90}\times6$ = $\frac{11}{15}$
Remaining work = $(1-\frac{11}{15})$ = $\frac{4}{15}$
Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{4}{15}$.
