A is twice as good a workman as B and together they finish a piece of work in 22 days. In how many days will A alone finish the same work? |
11 days 44 days 30 days 33 days |
33 days |
Given, A is twice as good a workman as B, therefore, A : B = 2 : 1 (Efficiency) They complete the work in 22 days together = (2 + 1) x 22 = 3 x 22 = 66 units, ..(Efficiency × Days = Total work) ⇒ Time required by A to complete the work alone = \(\frac{66}{2}\) = 33 days, ..(\(\frac{Work}{Efficiency}\) = Time) |
