A can finish a work in 18 days and B can do same work in half the time taken by A. then working together, what part of same work they can finish in a day

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 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 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 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 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.
