Practicing Success
A and B can do a piece of work together in 10 days, B and C can do the same work together in 15 days, while C and A can do the same work together in 20 days. In how many days can A, B and C do the same work, working together ? |
$\frac{60}{11}$ days $\frac{60}{13}$ days $\frac{120}{11}$ days $\frac{120}{13}$ days |
$\frac{120}{13}$ days |
A + B = 10 days, B + C = 15 days, C + A = 20 days, ⇒ Adding all the efficiencies, ⇒ 2(X + Y + Z) = 13 ⇒ X + Y + Z = \(\frac{13}{2}\), ⇒ Time required by A + B + C to complete the work = \(\frac{60}{13/2}\) = \(\frac{120}{13}\) days, ..(\(\frac{Work}{Efficiency}\) = Time) |
