Five technicians of a Studio A can do a work in 30 days. Eight technicians of a Studio B can do the same work in 15 days. In how many days can one technician of Studio A and one technician of Studio B, together do the same work? |
$\frac{190}{3}$ $\frac{200}{3}$ $\frac{250}{9}$ $\frac{220}{9}$ |
$\frac{200}{3}$ |
According to the question, 5A x 30 = 8B x 15 5A = 4B A : B = 4 : 5 (Efficiency) ⇒ Total work = 5(4) x 30 = 20 x 30 = 600 units, ..(Efficiency × Days = Total work) ⇒ A + B can complete the work in = \(\frac{600}{4 + 5}\) = \(\frac{600}{9}\) = \(\frac{200}{3}\) days. ..(\(\frac{Work}{Efficiency}\) = Time) |
