A is thrice as good a workman as B and together they can finish a work in 32 days. In how many days will B alone complete the same work? |
96 days 104 days 112 days 128 days |
128 days |
As Given, A is thrice as good a workman as B, therefore, ⇒ A : B = 3: 1 (Efficiency) ⇒ A + B can finish a work in 32 days = (3 + 1) x 32 = 128 units ..(Efficiency × Days = Total work) ⇒ B alone complete the same work in = \(\frac{128}{1}\) = 128 days ..(\(\frac{Work}{Efficiency}\) = Time ). Therefore, B can complete the total work alone in 128 days.
