A piece of work can be done by 6 men and 5 women in 6 days or 3 men and 4 women in 10 days. It can be done by 9 men and 15 women in how many 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 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

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 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 A

Explanation:

Ratio of times taken by A and B = 1:3
Means B will take 3 times which A will do in 1 time

If difference of time is 2 days, B takes 3 days
If difference of time is 10 days, B takes (3/2) * 10 =15 days
