Practicing Success
A can do 2/3rd of a work in 10 days while B can do 3/4th of the work in 15 days. Working together in how many days they will finish 3/5th of the work? |
\(5\frac{1}{7}\) days \(6\frac{1}{7}\) days \(9\frac{1}{7}\) \(8\frac{1}{7}\) |
\(5\frac{1}{7}\) days |
Time taken by A to do \(\frac{2}{3}\) part of work is 10 days Time taken by A to do whole work = 15 days Time taken by B to do \(\frac{3}{4}\) part of work is 15 days Time taken by B to do whole work = 20 days
\(\frac{3}{5}\) of work = \(\frac{3}{5}\) × 60R = 36R Time taken by A & B together to do \(\frac{3}{5}\) of work = \(\frac{36}{7}\) = 5\(\frac{1}{7}\) days |
