Question:

Anil can make 20 bags in 4 days and Manoj can make 10 bags in 5 days. How many bags both Anil and Manoj together can make in one day?

Options:

11 bags

7 bags

9 bags

5 bags

Correct Answer:

7 bags

Explanation:

Anil = 20 bags in 4 days,

Manoj = 10 bags in 5 days,

Therefore,

Anil = \(\frac{4}{20}\) = \(\frac{1}{5}\) 

Manoj = \(\frac{5}{10}\) \(\frac{1}{2}\)

⇒ Anil : Manoj = 2 : 5    (Efficiency)

⇒ No. of bags both of them make in one day = \(\frac{Bags}{(2 + 5)}\) = 1 = Bags = 7.     ..(\(\frac{Work}{Efficiency}\) = Time)

Therefore, they will make 7 bags in one day.
