5 men and 2 boys working together can do four times as much work as a man and a boy. Working capacity of man and boy is in the ratio

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Suppose B takes x dáys to do the work.
As per question A will take
\begin{aligned}
2* \frac{3}{4} * x = \frac{3x}{2}days
\end{aligned}

(A+B)s 1 days work= 1/18
1/x + 2/3x = 1/18 or x = 30 days

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

A+B 1 day work = 1/8
B+C 1 day work = 1/12
A+B+C 1 day work = 1/6

We can get A work by (A+B+C)-(B+C)
And C by (A+B+C)-(A+B)

So A 1 day work =
\begin{aligned}
\frac{1}{6}- \frac{1}{12} \\
= \frac{1}{12}
\end{aligned}

Similarly C 1 day work =
\begin{aligned}
\frac{1}{6}- \frac{1}{8} \\
= \frac{4-3}{24} \\
= \frac{1}{24}
\end{aligned}

So A and C 1 day work =

\begin{aligned}
\frac{1}{12} + \frac{1}{24} \\
= \frac{3}{24} \\
= \frac{1}{8}
\end{aligned}

So A and C can together do this work in 8 days

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

B's 5 days work =
\begin{aligned}
\frac{1}{10}*5 = \frac{1}{2} \\
\text{Remaining work =} 1-\frac{1}{2} \\
= \frac{1}{2} \\

\text{A can finish work =}15*\frac{1}{2} \\
= 7.5 days

\end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

As per question, A do twice the work as done by B.
So A:B = 2:1
Also (A+B) one day work = 1/18

To get days in which B will finish the work, lets calculate work done by B in 1 day =
\begin{aligned}
=\left(\frac{1}{18}*\frac{1}{3} \right) \\
= \frac{1}{54}
\end{aligned}
[Please note we multiplied by 1/3 as per B share and total of ratio is 1/3]

So B will finish the work in 54 days

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Work done by A in 1 hour = 1/4

Work done by B and C in 1 hour = 1/3

Work done by A and C in 1 hour = 1/2

Work done by A,B and C in 1 hour = (1/4)+(1/3) = 7/12

Work done by B in 1 hour = (7/12)–(1/2) = 1/12

=> B alone can complete the work in 12 hour
