Question Detail
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.
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. 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
- 1\5
- 1\6
- 1\7
- 1\8
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.
3. A is thrice as good a workman as B and takes 10 days less to do a piece of work than B takes. B alone can do the whole work in
- 15 days
- 10 days
- 9 days
- 8 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
4. 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.
5. A can do a job in 16 days, B can do same job in 12 days. With the help of C they did the job in 4 days. C alone can do the same job in how many days ?
- \begin{aligned} 6\frac{1}{2}days \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 7\frac{1}{2}days \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 8\frac{3}{5}days \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 9\frac{3}{5}days \end{aligned}
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
In this question we having, A's work, B's work and A+B+C work. We need to calculate C's work.
We can do it by,
(A+B+C)'s work - (A's work + B's work).
Let's solve it now:
C's 1 day work =
\begin{aligned}
\frac{1}{4}- \left(\frac{1}{16} +\frac{1}{12} \right) \\
=\left(\frac{1}{4} - \frac{7}{48} \right) \\
= \frac{5}{48}
\end{aligned}
So C can alone finish the job in 48/5 days,
Which is =
\begin{aligned} 9\frac{3}{5}days \end{aligned}
