Q:
A) 16 days | B) 13 days |
C) 15 days | D) 12 days |
Answer: B) 13 days
Explanation:
Explanation:
Ratio of times taken by P & Q = 100 : 130 = 10:13
Let Q takes x days to do the work
Then, 10:13 :: 23:x
=> x = 23x13/10
=> x = 299/10
P's 1 day's work = 1/23
Q's 1 day's work = 10/299
(P+Q)'s 1 day's work = (1/23 + 10/299) = 23/299 = 1/13
Hence, P & Q together can complete the work in 13 days.
