A man is twice as fast as a woman and a woman is twice as fast as a boy. If together, they can finish a work in 15 days, how long will a boy take alone to finish the same work? |
21 days 105 days 52.5 days 77.5 days |
105 days |
Man : Woman : Boy Efficiency 4 : 2 : 1 Total efficiency = 4 + 2 + 1 = 7 Total work = efficiency x No. of days = 7 x 15 = 105 Time taken by a boy to complete this same work = \(\frac{Total\; work}{efficiency}\) = \(\frac{105}{1}\) = 105 days |
