Question:

E, F and G together can complete a work in 12 days. If E and F together can complete the same work in 30 days, then in how many days can G alone complete the same work?

Options:

18 days

20 days

12 days

24 days

Correct Answer:

20 days

Explanation:

E + F + G = 12 days,

E + F = 30 days,

⇒ E + F + G = 5   (Efficiency)

⇒ 2 + G = 5,

⇒ G = 3,

Time required by G to complete the work alone = \(\frac{60}{3}\) = 20 days,  ..(\(\frac{Work}{Efficiency}\) = Time)
