A and B can do a piece of work in 36 days. B and C can do the same work in 60 days. A and C can do the same work in 45 days. In how many days can B alone complete the same work? |
45 60 90 120 |
90 |
A + B = 36 days, B + C = 60 days, A + C = 45 days, ⇒ Adding all the efficiency, we get, 2(A + B + C) = 12, ⇒ A + B + C = 6, Putting value of A + C, we get B, ⇒ B + 4 = 6 ⇒ B = 2 Hence, time required by B to complete the work alone = \(\frac{180}{2}\) = 90 days. ..(\(\frac{Work}{Efficiency}\) = Time ) |
