3 hours daily, he has total 660 flower pots that to be made in 4 days time. To accomplish this work he took the help of his brother and both of them started working together to complete the work. How many flower pots can be made by his brother in an hour?Solution
Flower pots made by the person in one hour = 48 Flower pots made by him working 3 hours daily in one day = 48 × 3 = 144 Flower pots made by him in 4 days = 144 × 4 = 576 Remaining flower pots = 660 – 576 = 84 Now these 84 flower pots will be made by his brother, in 4 days working 3 hours daily. Flower pots made by his brother in an hour = 84/(4×3) = 84/12 = 7
