Working alone at their respective constant rates, A can complete a task…

Working alone at their respective constant rates, A can complete a task in ‘a’ days and B in ‘b’ days. They take turns in doing the task with each working 2 days at a time. If A starts they finish the task in exactly 14 days. If B starts, they take a day more. How long does it take to complete the task if they both work together?

This problem repeats another one in the library (at most with different numbers), so it's left out of browsing.
