Question
A and B individually can complete the work in 32 days
and 48 days respectively. If the time taken by C alone to complete the work is 1.25 times the time taken by A and B together to complete the work, find the time taken by C to complete the work while working alone.Solution
Time taken by A and B together to complete the work = (32 × 48)/ (32 + 48) = 19.2 days Time taken by C alone to complete the work = 1.25 × 19.2 = 24 days
