Practicing Success
Raj alone can complete a work in 20 days and Pratap alone can complete the same work in half of the time taken by Raj. In how many days will both together complete 3/5 part of the total work ? |
10 days 4 days 6 days 8 days |
4 days |
Efficiency ∝ $\frac{1}{time}$ Raj : Pratap Time 20 : 10 = 2 : 1 Efficiency 1 : 2 Let the total work be 20 total efficiency = 1 + 2 =3 $\frac{3}{5}$ of the work = 12 units Time taken to complete this work = $\frac{work}{efficiency}$ = $\frac{12}{3}$ = 4days |
