Answer: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
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 ?
Answer: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
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?
Answer: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 = (570+10140)=17 So 5 women and 10 children will finish the work in 7 days.
