1. Solution: From the above formula i.e (m1*t1/w1) = (m2*t2/w2)
so (9*6*88/1) = (6*8*d/1)
on solving, d = 99 days.
2. Solution: From the above formula i.e (m1*t1/w1) = (m2*t2/w2)
so, (34*8*9/(2/5)) = (x*6*9/(3/5))
so, x = 136 men
number of men to be added to finish the work = 136-34 = 102 men
3. Solution: Given that 5 women is equal to 8 girls to complete a work. So, 10 women = 16 girls. Therefore 10 women + 5 girls = 16 girls + 5 girls = 21 girls.
8 girls can do a work in 84 days then 21 girls can do a work in (8*84/21) = 32 days.
Therefore 10 women and 5 girls can a work in 32 days
4. Solution: A's one hour work = 1/8. B's one hour work = 1/10. (A+B)'s one hour work = 1/8+1/10 = 9/40. Both A & B can finish the work in 40/9 days
5. Solution: Given that B alone can complete the same work in days = half the time
taken by A = 9 days
A's one day work = 1/18
B's one day work = 1/9
(A+B)'s one day work = 1/18+1/9 = 1/6
6. Solution: A can complete the work in (7*9) = 63 days
B can complete the work in (6*7) = 42 days
= > A's one hour's work = 1/63 and
B's one hour work = 1/42
(A+B)'s one hour work = 1/63+1/42 = 5/126
Therefore, Both can finish the work in 126/5 hours.
Number of days of 8 2/5 hours each = (126*5/(5*42)) = 3 days
7. Solution: Suppose A,B and C take x,x/2 and x/3 hours respectively finish the
work then 1/x+2/x+3/x = 1/2
= > 6/x = 1/2
= >x = 12
So, B takes 6 hours to finish the work.
8. Solution:Whole work will be done by X in 10*4 = 40 days.
Whole work will be done by Y in (40*100/40) = 100 days.
Whole work will be done by Z in (13*3) = 39 days
Therefore, Z will complete the work first.
9. Solution: Ratio of time taken by A & B = 160:100 = 8:5
Suppose B alone takes x days to do the job.
Then, 8:5::12:x
= > 8x = 5*12
= > x = 15/2 days.
10. Solution: A can complete the work in (7*9) = 63 days
B can complete the work in (6*7) = 42 days
= > A’s one hour’s work = 1/63 and
B’s one hour work = 1/42
(A+B)’s one hour work = 1/63+1/42 = 5/126
Therefore, Both can finish the work in 126/5 hours.
Number of days of 8 2/5 hours each = (126*5/(5*42)) = 3 days
