Question Detail
A does a work in 10 days and B does the same work in 15 days. In how many days they together will do the same work ?
- 5 days
- 6 days
- 7 days
- 8 days
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.
1. A tyre has two punctures. The first puncture alone would have made the tyre flat in 9 minutes and the second alone would have done it in 6 minutes. If air leaks out at a constant rate, how long does it take both the punctures together to make it flat ?
- \begin{aligned} 3\frac{1}{5} min \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 3\frac{2}{5} min \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 3\frac{3}{5} min \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 3\frac{4}{5} min \end{aligned}
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}
2. 5 men and 2 boys working together can do four times as much work as a man and a boy. Working capacity of man and boy is in the ratio
- 1:2
- 1:3
- 2:1
- 2:3
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Let 1 man 1 day work = x
1 boy 1 day work = y
then 5x + 2y = 4(x+y)
=> x = 2y
=> x/y = 2/1
=> x:y = 2:1
3. Rahul and Sham together can complete a task in 35 days, but Rahul alone can complete same work in 60 days. Calculate in how many days Sham can complete this work ?
- 84 days
- 82 days
- 76 days
- 68 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.
4. To complete a work A and B takes 8 days, B and C takes 12 days, A,B and C takes 6 days. How much time A and C will take
- 24 days
- 16 days
- 12 days
- 8 days
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
5. 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.
- \begin{aligned} \frac{4}{9} \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 2\frac{4}{9} \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 3\frac{4}{9} \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 4\frac{4}{9} \end{aligned}
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}
