A) 4987	B) 5784
C) 5223	D) 4741

Let the required number be 'N'

i.e, $\frac{25}{100} x \frac{3}{7} x (\frac{26}{100} x N) = 145.5$

N = $\frac{145.5 x 7 x 10000}{75 x 26}$

Q:

Raghu can complete a work in 12days working 9 hours a day. Arun can complete the same work in 8 days working 11 hours a day. If both Raghu and Arun work together, working 12 hours a day, in how many days can they complete the work ?

A) $3 \frac{4}{49} d a y s$

B) $12 \frac{4}{49} d a y s$

C) $4 \frac{3}{49} d a y s$

D) $4 \frac{12}{49} d a y s$

A) Option A	B) Option B
C) Option C	D) Option D

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Option C

Explanation:

Raghu can complete the work in (12 x 9)hrs = 108 hrs.

Arun can complete the work in (8 x 11)hrs = 88 hrs.

Raghu's 1 hrs work = 1/108 and Arun's 1 hrs work = 1/88

(Raghu + Arun)'s 1 hrs work = $(\frac{1}{108} + \frac{1}{88}) = \frac{49}{2376}$

So, both Raghu and Arun will finish the work in $\frac{2376}{49} h r s$

Number of days of 12 hours each= $(\frac{2376}{49} \times \frac{1}{12})$ = $\frac{198}{49} = 4 \frac{3}{49} d a y s$
