AI explanation

Let Aman's one day work be A and Farhan's one day work be F. Their combined rate is A + F = 1/30. Substituting A = 1/30 - F into the equation 16A + 44F = 1 gives 16(1/30 - F) + 44F = 1. Solving 8/15 + 28F = 1 gives 28F = 7/15, so F = 1/60. Farhan alone will complete the work in 60 days.
