A can do a piece of work in 4 hours . A and C together can do it in just 2 hours, while B and C together need 3 hours to finish the same work. In how many hours B can complete the work ?

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 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:

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 B

Explanation:

Please note in this question, we need to answer part of work for a day rather than complete work. It was worth mentioning here because many do mistake at this point in hurry to solve the question

So lets solve now,
A's 1 day work = 1/18
B's 1 day work = 1/9 [because B take half time than A]

(A+B)'s one day work =

\begin{aligned}
\left(\frac{1}{18}+\frac{1}{9} \right) \\
=\left(\frac{1+2}{18} \right) \\
= \frac{1}{6}
\end{aligned}

So in one day 1/6 work will be done.

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}
