To complete a work A and B takes 8 days, B and C takes 12 days, A,B and C takes 6 days. How much time A and C will take

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

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 B

Explanation:

C's 1 day's work =

$$\begin{aligned} \frac{1}{3}- \left(\frac{1}{6} +\frac{1}{8} \right) \\ =\left(\frac{1}{3} - \frac{7}{24} \right) \\ = \frac{1}{24} \\ A:B:C = \frac{1}{6}:\frac{1}{8}:\frac{1}{24} \\ = 4:3:1 \\ C's Share = \frac{1}{8}* 3200 \\ = 400 \end{aligned}$$
If you are confused how we multiplied 1/8, then please study ratio and proportion chapter, for small information, it is the C ratio divided by total ratio.

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 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.
