4/5

2/5

1/5

- A and B can complete the entire work in 20 days when working together.

- In one day, A and B together complete 1/20 of the work.

- They worked together for 8 days. This means they completed 8 * (1/20) = 8/20 = 2/5 of the work.

- The share of the work that remains is the total work minus the completed work.

- Total work = 1 (whole work).

- Completed work = 2/5.

- Remaining work = 1 - 2/5 = 3/5 of the work.

Answer: Option:1 - 3/5
