Q:

Application of Inverse Proportion

If 20 persons can do a piece of work in 7 days then calculate the number of persons require to complete the work in 28 days

Answer

Number of persons * days = work  


20 * 7 = 140 man- days 


 


Now,  x * 28  = 140 men- days


=> x =5         


Therefore in second case the required number of person is 5.


 


Second method:


Since work is constant, therefore  M1 x D1= M2 x D2


20 x 7 = M2 x 28


=> M2 = 5

Q:

Concept of Nehative Work

A tub can be filed in 20 minutes but there is a lekage in it which can empty the full tub in 60 minutes. In how many minutes it can be filled?

Answer

Filling efficiency = 5%        


Emptying efficiency = 1.66%  


Net efficiency = 5-1.66 = 3.33%


Therefore, Required time to fil the tub =100/3.33= 30 minutes

Q:

Relation Between Efficiency and Time

A is twice as good a workman as B and is therefore able to finish a piece of work in 30 days less than B.In how many days they can complee the whole work; working together?

Answer

Ratio of times taken by A and B = 1 : 2.


The time difference is (2 - 1) 1 day while B take 2 days and A takes 1 day.


If difference of time is 1 day, B takes 2 days.


If difference of time is 30 days, B takes 2 x 30 = 60 days.


So, A takes 30 days to do the work.


 


A's 1 day's work = 1/30


B's 1 day's work = 1/60


(A + B)'s 1 day's work = 1/30 + 1/60 = 1/20


A and B together can do the work in 20 days.

Q:

Concept of Efficiency

A can do a job in 12 days and B can do the same job in 6 days, in how many days working together they can complete the job?

Answer

A's 1 days work = 1/12 


B's 1 days work =1/6


Therefore, (A+B)'s 1 day's work= 1/12 + 1/6 = 1/4       


Therefore, Time taken by both to finish the whole work = 114 = 4 days


 


Alternatively :


Efficiency of A =100/12 =8.33%


Efficiency of B =100/6=16.66%


Combined efficiency of A and B both = 8.33+16.66=25%


Therefore, Time taken by both to finish the work (working together) =100/25= 4days

Q:

12 men can complete a work in 8 days. 16 women can complete the same work in 12 days. 8 men and 8 women started working  and worked for 6 days. How many more men are to be added to complete the remaining work in 1 day?

A) 8 B) 12
C) 16 D) 24
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 12

Explanation:

1 man's 1 day work =1/96 ; 1 woman's 1 day work = 1/192

Work done in 6 days=6896+8192=6×18 =34 

Remaining work = 1/4

(8 men +8 women)'s 1 day work = 1896+8192 =1/8

Remaining work =1/4 -  1/8 = 1/8

 

 1/96 work is done in 1 day by 1 man

 

Therefore, 1/8 work will be done in 1 day by 96 x (1/8) =12 men

Q:

Ten women can do a work in six days. Six men can complete the same work in five days. What is the ratio between the capacity of a man and a woman?

A) 1:2 B) 2:1
C) 2:3 D) 3:2
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 2:1

Explanation:

(10 * 6) women can complete the work in 1 day.

 Therefore, 1 woman's  1 day's work = 1/60

 

(6 * 5) men can complete the work in 1 day.

 Therefore, 1 man's  1 day's work = 1/30

 

so, required ratio =1/30 : 1/60 = 2:1

Q:

A and B together can do a piece of work in 40 days. A having worked for 20 days, B finishes the remaining work alone in 60 days. In How many days shall B finish the  whole work alone?

A) 60 B) 70
C) 80 D) 90
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 80

Explanation:

Let A's 1 day's work=x and B's 1 day's work=y

Then x+y = 1/40 and 20x+60y=1 

Solving these two equations , we get : x= 1/80 and y= 1/80

Therefore B's  1 day work = 1/80

Hence,B alone shall finish the whole work in 80 days

Q:

A and B together finish a wor in 20 days.They worked together for 15 days and then B left. Afer another 10 days,A finished the remaining work. In how many days A alone  can finish the job?

A) 30 B) 40
C) 50 D) 60
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 40

Explanation:

(A+B)'s 15 days work = 120×15=34

Remaining work =  1/4

Now, 1/4 work is done by A in 10 days.

Whole work will be done by A in (10 x 4) = 40 days.
