Question Detail
A can do a certain job in 25 days which B alone can do in 20 days. A started the work and was joined by B after 10 days. The number of days taken in completing the wotk were ?
- \begin{aligned} 14\frac{2}{3}kmph \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 15\frac{2}{3}kmph \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 16\frac{2}{3}kmph \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 17\frac{2}{3}kmph \end{aligned}
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Work done by A in l0 days = (1/25) *10 = 2/5
Remaining work = 1 - (2/5) = 3/5
(A+B)s 1 days work = (1/25) + (1/20) = 9/100
9/100 work is done by them in 1 day.
hence 3/5 work will be done by them in (3/5)*(100/9)
= 20/3days.
Total time taken = (10 + 20/3) = 16*(2/3) days
1. A tyre has two punctures. The first puncture alone would have made the tyre flat in 9 minutes and the second alone would have done it in 6 minutes. If air leaks out at a constant rate, how long does it take both the punctures together to make it flat ?
- \begin{aligned} 3\frac{1}{5} min \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 3\frac{2}{5} min \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 3\frac{3}{5} min \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 3\frac{4}{5} min \end{aligned}
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Do not be confused, Take this question same as that of work done question's. Like work done by 1st puncture in 1 minute and by second in 1 minute.
Lets Solve it:
1 minute work done by both the punctures =
\begin{aligned}
\left(\frac{1}{9}+\frac{1}{6} \right) \\
=\left(\frac{5}{18} \right) \\
\end{aligned}
So both punctures will make the type flat in
\begin{aligned}
\left(\frac{18}{5} \right)mins \\
= 3\frac{3}{5} mins
\end{aligned}
2. A is thrice as good a workman as B and takes 10 days less to do a piece of work than B takes. B alone can do the whole work in
- 15 days
- 10 days
- 9 days
- 8 days
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
Ratio of times taken by A and B = 1:3
Means B will take 3 times which A will do in 1 time
If difference of time is 2 days, B takes 3 days
If difference of time is 10 days, B takes (3/2) * 10 =15 days
3. A piece of work can be done by 6 men and 5 women in 6 days or 3 men and 4 women in 10 days. It can be done by 9 men and 15 women in how many days ?
- 3 days
- 4 days
- 5 days
- 6 days
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
To calculate the answer we need to get 1 man per day work and 1 woman per day work.
Let 1 man 1 day work =x
and 1 woman 1 days work = y.
=> 6x+5y = 1/6
and 3x+4y = 1/10
On solving, we get x = 1/54 and y = 1/90
(9 men + 15 women)'s 1 days work =
(9/54) + (15/90) = 1/3
9 men and 15 women will finish the work in 3 days
4. 10 women can complete a work in 7 days and 10 children take 14 days to complete the work. How many days will 5 women and 10 children take to complete the work?
- 6 days
- 7 days
- 8 days
- 9 days
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
1 woman's 1 day's work = 1/70
1 Child's 1 day's work = 1/140
5 Women and 10 children 1 day work =
\begin{aligned}
\left(\frac{5}{70}+\frac{10}{140}\right) \\
= \frac{1}{7}
\end{aligned}
So 5 women and 10 children will finish the work in 7 days.
5. A alone can complete a work in 16 days and B alone can do in 12 days. Starting with A, they work on alternate days. The total work will be completed in
- \begin{aligned} 13\frac{1}{4} \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 13\frac{1}{2} \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 13\frac{3}{4} \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 13\frac{4}{4} \end{aligned}
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
A's 1 day work = 1/16
B's 1 day work = 1/12
As they are working on alternate day's
So their 2 days work = (1/16)+(1/12)
= 7/48
[here is a small technique, Total work done will be 1, right, then multiply numerator till denominator, as 7*6 = 42, 7*7 = 49, as 7*7 is more than 48, so we will consider 7*6, means 6 pairs ]
Work done in 6 pairs = 6*(7/48) = 7/8
Remaining work = 1-7/8 = 1/8
On 13th day it will A turn,
then remaining work = (1/8)-(1/16) = 1/16
On 14th day it is B turn,
1/12 work done by B in 1 day
1/16 work will be done in (12*1/16) = 3/4 day
So total days =
\begin{aligned} 13\frac{3}{4} \end{aligned}
