A man is twice as fast as a woman and a woman is thrice as fast as a boy. If together, they can finish a work in 6 days, how long will a woman and a boy together take to finish the same work? |
12 days 6 days 10 days 15 days |
15 days |
Man : Woman : Boy Efficiency 6 : 3 : 1 Total efficiency = 6 + 3 + 1 = 10 Total work = efficiency x No. of days = 10 x 6 = 60 Time taken by a woman and a boy to complete this same work = \(\frac{Total\; work}{efficiency}\) = \(\frac{60}{4}\) = 15 days |
