Question
P and Q can complete a work in 38 days and 57 days,
respectively. P, Q and R together can complete the work in 19 days. If R get a total wage of Rs. 6270 to complete the work alone, then find the per day wage of R.Solution
Let the total work be LCM of (38, 57 and 19) = 114 units Number of units of work done by P alone in one day = 114/38 = 3 units Number of units of work done by Q alone in one day = 114/57 = 2 units Number of units of work done by P, Q and R together in one day = 114/19 = 6 units Number of units of work done by R alone in one day = 6 – 3 – 2 = 1 unit So, time taken by R alone to complete the work = 114/1 = 114 days So, per day wage of R = 6270/114 = Rs. 55
