      Question

      A’ and β€˜B’ together can complete a work in 10 days

      while β€˜A’ takes 15 days to complete the same work alone. If β€˜C’ is 20% more efficient than β€˜B’, then find the time taken by β€˜C’ alone to complete the whole work.
      A 20 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 24 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 25 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 27 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the total work = 30 units Efficiency of (A + B) = 30/10 = 3 units/day Efficiency of β€˜A’ = 30/15 = 2 unit/day Therefore, efficiency of β€˜B’ = 3 – 2 = 1 units/day Efficiency of β€˜C’ = 1.2 Γ— 1 = 1.2 units/day Required time taken = 30/1.2 = 25 days
