‘A’ and ‘B’ can complete a certain work in 18
days and 20 days, respectively. They started working together and worked till completion of the work for which they got Rs. 19000 as wage. Find the share of ‘B’ out of total wage.Solution
Let total work = 180 units {LCM of (18 and 20)} Efficiency of ‘A’ = 180/18 = 10 units/day Efficiency of ‘B’ = 180/20 = 9 units/day Wages received by ‘A’ and ‘B’ will directly proportion to their efficiency. So share of ‘B’ = 19000 × (9/19) = Rs 9000
