A work is done by two people in 24 minutes. One of them alone can do it in 40 minutes. How much time will the other person will take to complete it ?

• ans is 60mins
  gn:
  A+B=91/24)
  A=(1/40)
  (1/40)+B=(1/24)
  B=(1/60)
  =>B=60mins

• assume A's work is =w1 and B's work is=w2
  so
  w/w1=40 and w/(w1+w2)=24 now we have to calculate w/w2=?
  so by solving both equations we get w/w2 as=60 min so
  B's time = 60 min

• 1/x+1/y=xy/x+y=====>24 min.
  1/40+1/y=1/24
  1/y=1/40-1/24==2/120===>1/60
  So 2nd person can alone do that work in 60 days

• (1/24-1/40) = (40-24)/40*24= 60 min
