Rahul and Sham together can complete a task in 35 days, but Rahul alone can complete same work in 60 days. Calculate in how many days Sham can complete this work ?

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

As Rahul and Sham together can finish work in 35 days.
1 days work of Rahul and Sham is 1/35
Rahul can alone complete this work in 60 days,
So, Rahul one day work is 1/60
Clearly, Sham one day work will be = (Rahul and Sham one day work) - (Rahul one day work)
\begin{aligned}
= \frac{1}{35} - \frac{1}{60} \\
= \frac{1}{84} \\
\end{aligned}

Hence Sham will complete the given work in 84 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

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

In this type of questions, first we need to calculate 1 hours work, then their collective work as,

A's 1 hour work is 1/8
B's 1 hour work is 1/10

(A+B)'s 1 hour work = 1/8 + 1/10
= 9/40

So both will finish the work in 40/9 hours
= \begin{aligned} 4\frac{4}{9} \end{aligned}

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 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
