    Question

    A’ and β€˜B’ together can complete a work in 22 days

    while β€˜A’ takes 33 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 52 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 53 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 55 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 51 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the total work = 66 units Efficiency of (A + B) = 66/22 = 3 units/day Efficiency of β€˜A’ = 66/33 = 2 unit/day Therefore, efficiency of β€˜B’ = 3 – 2 = 1 units/day Efficiency of β€˜C’ = 1.2 Γ— 1 = 1.20 units/day Required time taken = 66/1.20 = 55 days
