Time and Work
A,B, and C can complete a piece of work in 24,6 and 12 days respectively. Working together , they will complete the same work in
A. 1/24 day B. 7/24 day
C. 3x3/7 days D. 4 days
Read Solution (Total 4)
-
- combined 1 day work
=(1/10+1/12+1/15th part of the work
=7/24 th part of the work
time of completion by working together=1/(7/24)=3*3/7 days
ans: option C - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(15) No(2)
- Sol: Given A in 24 days,
B in 6 days and
C in 12 days
then A in 1 day is 1/24,B in 1 day is 1/6 and C in 1/12
therefore together they can complete the same work in
1/24 + 1/6 + 1/12 = 7/24 - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(9) No(15)
- A's one day work=1/24
B's one day work=1/6
c's one day work=1/12
then all together A+B+C one day work = (1/24+1/6+1/12)
= 7/24
all together complete the the work in=24/7 days = 3*3/7 days - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- Option B
The total work will be LCM(24,6,12)=24
A's work = 24/24=1 unit/day
B's work = 24/6 =4 units/day
C's work = 24/12=2 units /day
so 1 day work = 7 units/day but total units =24
i.e.., work = 7/24 - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
