4 men and 6 women finish a job in 8 days, while 3 men and 7 women finish it in 10 days. In how many days will 10 women working together finish it ?

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Firstly we will find 1 day work of both A and B, then by adding we can get collective days for them,
So,
A's 1 day work = 1/10
B's 1 day work = 1/15

(A+B)'s 1 day work =
\begin{aligned}
\left(\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{15} \right) \\
=\left(\frac{3+2}{30} \right) \\
= \frac{1}{6}
\end{aligned}

So together they can complete work in 6 days.

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Work done by A in 20 days = 80/100 = 8/10 = 4/5

Work done by A in 1 day = (4/5) / 20 = 4/100 = 1/25 --- (1)

Work done by A and B in 3 days = 20/100 = 1/5 (Because remaining 20% is done in 3 days by A and B)

Work done by A and B in 1 day = 1/15 ---(2)

Work done by B in 1 day = 1/15 – 1/25 = 2/75

=> B can complete the work in 75/2 days = 37 (1/2) days

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let 1 man's 1 day work = x
and 1 woman's 1 days work = y.
Then, 4x + 6y = 1/8
and 3x+7y = 1/10
solving, we get y = 1/400 [means work done by a woman in 1 day]

10 women 1 day work = 10/400 = 1/40

10 women will finish the work in 40 days

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}

It may be a bit typical question, but if are not getting it in first try then give it a second try. Even not, then comment for explanation for this. We will be happy to help you.

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
