Worker A takes 8 hours to do a job. Worker B takes 10 hours to do a job. How long should it take both A and B, working together to do same job.

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

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}

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 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.

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.
