Question

    Raushan can complete the wall putty work in 6 days and

    Satyam can complete it in 12 days. While working together with Raghu, they completed the job in 2 days only. In how many days Raghu alone can complete the job?
    A 8 Days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 6 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 4 Days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 12 Days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Work done by Raushan in 1 day = 1/6 Work done by Satyam in 1 day = 1/12 Let the work done by Raghu be x. Work done by Raghu in 1 day = 1/x Work done by all of them together is, (1/6) + (1/12) + (1/x) = 1/2 (1/x) = (1/2) - (1/6) - (1/12)  => [(6 - 2 - 1)/12] = 3/12 = 1/4 ∴ Raghu completes the work in 4 days.
