Explanation:

Total work (LCM of 6 and 12) = 12 units
Money paid to complete the total work = 960/12 = Rs. 80
Number of units of work completed by Pumba = 540/80 = 6.75 units
Number of units of work completed by Timon = 12 – 6.75 = 5.25 units
Number of days taken(x) to complete 5.25 units by Timon = 5.25/2 = 2.625 days
